DIRK DARMSTAEDTER a German-born & New Jersey-raised cat who's been in the game since the late 80's. With a voice and delivery similar to NEIL FINN and an aboslute penchant for writing great indie pop songs its well time you discovered his talents. 'Our Favorite City' is Darmstaedter's 12th studio record. It was recorded with LEE RUSSELL in England in a renovated old church. The good vibe there soaked into every groove of this record. The production is classic and uncluttered - mellotrons and layered harmonies abound.
