Darcy James Argue's Secret Society
Mon, 03/08/2010 - 11:21am — Nathan
Darcy James Argue's Secret Society is my favorite big band, whether or not you want to call the jazz. Their "steampunk big band" style combines elements of jazz, indie rock, and post-minimalist music to create something very compelling. Also, composer and band leader Darcy James Argue is a big ol' geek.

His quirky songs are an excellent snapshot of geek sensibilities, distilled into three-minute nuggets. He quit his job as a computer programmer to pursue a full-time music career, and he is a model for my own venture into the business of making music. Plus, I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy his songs.
