Description:
Dan McCarthy has spent the past five years playing/touring with Mayday, Neva Dinova, The Good Life, Orenda Fink, Maria Taylor, Bright Eyes, and others. He`s also contributed to other bands` recordings such as Cursive`s "Happy Hollow" and Tilly And The Wall`s "Bottoms Of Barrels". His self-titled album is a distillation of two collections of songs from "Old Habits" (2003`s self-released nine song collection of drinking songs and waltzes) and 2005-2006`s "It`s Got Nothing To Do With The Drinking", given to only a handful of friends and family before Team Love expressed interest in releasing a "best of what you`ve put on tape so far". McCarthy Trenching compiles beautifully understated tracks that sound like a sunnier Townes Van Zandt. (Team Love)
