Even though the band’s sound has evolved over the years, frontman John Darnielle’s singer-songwriter aesthetic has always been at the core of the band’s music. It's a recipe that's earned it a cult-like following over the years.
Established in the ‘90s, the band's ascent paralleled those of indie folksters Joanna Newsom, Sufjan Stevens and Iron & Wine.
The band will swing through San Antonio on a tour in supporting the 2019 release In League With Dragons.
