ful intro led by Fischetti turns into
a rhythmic old-world frenzy that
allows the band to jam, then into
a rollicking, lilting romp that cre-
scendos back into the old-world
stomp.
The band have followed their
debut LP with a video for Rigo-
letto’s “Wolves on the Balcony,”
which flexes their folk muscles as
an entrant in NPR’s annual Tiny
Desk Contest. While they wait for
the results, Pyrenesia will be busy
performing in support of Off-Beat
Symphony. They will play April 27,
Godfrey Daniels, Bethlehem, Pa.,
with Alex Radus; April 28 at Shad-
fest in their hometown of Lambert-
ville; May 5 and June 2 at Logan
Inn, New Hope; July 13, Black Po-
tatoe Music Festival, Clinton; July
27, Little Engine Studio, French-
town; Aug. 4, Shippen Manor,
Oxford, and Aug. 22, Whittemore
Gardens, Lebanon.
