Video: Wye Oak’s Jenn Wasner Unveils Flock of Dimes Solo Project

Between Wye Oak tours with drummer Andy Stack recently, frontwoman Jenn Wasner quickly penned five songs ahead of a solo house show. Billed as a self-described “vanity project” dubbed Flock of Dimes, the result includes her “first attempts at drum programming” and compositions “in one particular guitar tuning that I’m not really comfortable in,” she told Bmore Musically Informed. Above, you can watch her unveil a particularly soulful FoD tune (quite a change of pace from last month’s Danzig cover), filmed by Bleary Eyed Brooklyn at Glasslands.

Our first studio preview of Wasner’s work under the new moniker will arrive on a forthcoming Friends Recs compilation in the form of “Prison Bride,” now streaming below:
