In House #1804: Finn Riggins, ( ) Live

Self-described in several ways, including a "concept vehicle" and an "unorthodox trio," Hailey, Idaho's Finn Riggins, ( ) joins us in the studio today for a live performance and interview. The band is just embarking on their Left Coast Is for Lovers tour beginning tomorrow night at the First National Bar in Pocatello. Their's is a unique musical vision to say the least, a proggy mix of indie rock, post-punk, post-folk, and ambient noise. The band's latest, ((alive bugs)), captures the mix live and comes complete with DIY retro post-modern packaging (think floppy discs). We'll talk about their origins, how it is being a "different" sounding band in Idaho, and what the ", ( )" is all about. Today's live set features the ultra-rare acoustic guitar and steel drum musical combo, revealing a surprisingly rootsy side to Finn Riggins' music.
