One of the more pleasant surprises that came our way in 2010 was the debut release of Portland band Old Light, The Dirty Future. A truly great record from start to finish from a genuinely great group of folks. Full of three-part harmonies, auto-harp, and lots of grungy, grimy guitar.

We’re thrilled to have them as part of Benefest and look forward to what the future holds as they begin to make plans for a followup release, possibly in 2011.

Enjoy the above take of Disappear and make sure to consider seeing them with The Corin Tucker Band at Mississippi Studios next Friday (1/22). Tickets are HERE. They’re going, going…
