NPR All Songs “First Watch” – The Barr Brothers “Beggar in the Morning”

The Barrs craft a world that maintains the soft, contemplative sound of much folk music while teasing the ear with overlapping layers of hums, vibrations, whistles and stomps … The “Beggar in the Morning” video finds Bircher using the mismatched and reconfigured bones of dead animals to construct skeletal likenesses of the band. The bony creatures come to life to perform before a twirling, dancing skeletal audience.
