Noah And The MegaFauna: Dark And Whimsical Swing

Soundcheck | Nov 5, 2014

If Django Reinhardt was a little indie rock, the music Noah And The MegaFauna conjures wouldn't be far off. The Los Angeles gypsy jazz-meets-indie rock band began as a project of Noah Lit and his two brothers  -- Josh and Gabe -- but very quickly, the ensemble grew into a 10-piece big band orchestra all playing an array of instruments: soaring horns, accordion, violin, clarinets, and much more. 

With its sophomore album, The Pale Blue Dot, Noah And The MegaFauana returns with another wild and fun collection of dark, whimsical swing and eccentric pop songs that showcase Lit's dynamic vocals and eerie songwriting. It's an wild and eclectic sound that conjures Tom Waits and Leonard Cohen, DeVotchKa and Django. And it's best heard live.
