Download “Welcome to Pittsburgh” (mp3)

River City Extension is an eight-piece band that doesn’t sound like an eight-piece band upon first listening. The songs on Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Your Anger, the band’s second album, are folk-based and lyrical. They evocatively and subtly layer just the right amount of accompaniments, adding horns and strings, steel guitars and beds of feedback. It’s an album that will easily draw in your ears and then cannily enwrap the catchy melodies in the slow buildup of the layers of instruments.
