“Last Sundays” with the Sympathetic String Band & Friends

The Sympathetic String Band returns for another instalment of “Last Sundays”, this time with a guest act from Lanark County known as Robert Planet & Farm Implement. Planet (aka Steven McPhail) has been quietly releasing stunning sample-based new age psychedelia for quite some time, yet the addition of his rural jazz ensemble “Farm Implement” promises to take his music into an entirely new dimension. The group’s Toronto debut is not to be missed! Expect another mystical improvised set from the Sympathetic String Band performed with their myriad of magical instruments. See you there!

Sympathetic String Band toes the ages from medieval troupe music to hippy heyday psych folk. With dulcimers and harps in hand, motifs of whimsy and sadness appear and dissolve into sprawling improvisations. With ever-changing members, musicorum and more, whatever form the Sympathetic String Band takes never appears twice.
