“You Felt Comfort”, Tim Darcy

This way: You Felt Comfort

Tim Darcy is a Canada-based songwriter, guitarist, and vocalist with an idiosyncratic delivery that may evoke a David Byrne or Lou Reed. Referred to as leader from the high-intensity indie rock-band Ought, he’s also released even more personal solo materials. Heading by Tim Beeler at that time (his delivery surname), the Arizona-born musician created Ought in Montreal in 2011 with keyboardist Matt Might, bassist Ben Stidworthy, and drummer/violinist Tim Eager. Taking weighty cues using their city’s flourishing picture of underground politics, loft celebrations, and D.We.Y. tradition, the music group melded unlikely affects from both high-energy middle-’90s emo rings and airy, early university rock acts just like the Feelies and Speaking Mind. The bandmembers all resided together inside a distributed house/practice space, self-recording their 1st EP, New Quiet, in 2012. They performed regularly in Montreal, ultimately catching the hearing of indie label Constellation, which released their debut full-length recording.
