Beginnings episode 117: Darwin Deez

On today's show we talk to musician Darwin Smith. Originally from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, Darwin moved to New York after attending Wesleyan for a short time and began playing in indie rock bands like The Creaky Boards and eventually his own group Darwin Deez. Their first self-titled album made a big splash in 2010, and they're second album Songs for Imaginative People came out earlier this year. It's pretty darn sweet.Check out the website for Beginnings, subscribe on iTunes and see some live dates: the next live episode will be October 1st at UCB East with Eugene Mirman (Bob's Burgers), Guy Branum (Totally Biased), musical guest Travis Morrison of The Dismemberment Plan, and guest co-host Elliot Kalan of The Daily Show and the Flop House Podcast!
