A little bit of bluegrass and such passed through the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn on July 28 when Larry And His Flask barrelled through. The show featured three solid acts, and honestly I had seen the three acts on that night a total of one time, so it was nice to go in with an open mind. I left impressed by all three acts overall.
Up first was Kayleigh Goldsworthy from Brooklyn, NY...

Their newest release, By The Lamplight, captures the raw energy of their live shows with twelve upbeat tracks. Five years ago, "The Flask," as they are known by fans, were a rock three-piece...

Upon exposure to By The Lamplight, it isn't hard to grasp why many--including Frank Turner--have been singing the praises of Larry And His Flask of late. Difficult to pigeonhole, the Redmond, Oregon, sextet draw on a wide range of traditional styles and influences to create an organic, unforced mishmash that is rich with nostalgia though fresh feeling...

Contrary to the name, Larry and his Flask are actually a six-piece acoustic powerhouse, and one of the more innovative in the recent wave of olde-tyme revivalists. Originally a punk outfit from Oregon, their decision to unplug in 2008 hardly dampened that spirit, and blazes from aptly title opener "Pandemonium" onwards...

Larry And His Flask are a ferocious live act from Oregon formed in 2003 but it's taken until By The Lamplight to properly capture that power on record. For a reference point, imagine someone giving Green Day banjos and you're on your way to understanding Larry and His Flask's sound. They recently supported Frank Turner & The Sleeping Souls on a UK/European tour and played a headline show at London's Relentless Garage venue as part of their own tour...

Release Date: September 25, 2012 Larry and His Flask might be a name you've heard before. Hell, you might even already enjoy their brand of finger-plucking punk rock. But their latest collection of tracks, an EP by the name of Hobo's Lament, is certainly to serve as a spike of energy regardless of your familiarity with the band...

The members of Larry and His Flask have seen their share of changes over the years. Originally starting out as a three piece punk group in 2003, the group experienced multiple lineup changes until suddenly revamping their sound to the form of what it is today. Hard hitting, fiercely bearded punk-bluegrass. Their latest album, All That We Know demonstrates their notion that just because the band's selection of instrumentation has evolved...
