Episode 109 - Fermata
Tuesday, February 16, 2010 at 1:00PM Combining the intimacy of Chamber Music with the boldness of Rock, Fermata brings power and honesty to each piece they perform. This union of traditional string instruments with new songwriting structures creates a sound that can best be described as Chamber Rock, or “Chamber pop for goths-who-smile.”
