Pygmalion Recap: Larry And His Flask, The Dirty Feathers, Murder By Death, and Warpaint

With day 2 of Pygmalion Music Festival ready to kick off, let us take a quick look back at how it all started with a recap of Day 1.Larry And His FlaskThis Amish-looking band from Oregon put on a show that I was not expecting judging by the way they looked. I would describe their sound as hardcore folk, which is a genre I have never delved into. The bassist, Jeshua Marshall, played a double bass and was much more mobile than any other stand up bass player I had ever seen. He ran across the stage many times with his bass in hand.
