With several critically acclaimed records already under their belt, The Handsome Family showcase their stripped down live sound with Live at Schuba"s. The duo of Brett and Rennie Sparks combine Brett"s haunting, baritone vocals with Rennie"s hilarious in-between song banter to create a delicate balance of dark humor and sweet Americana balladry - a unique mix of vocals, guitar, bass, and the most creative use of a drum machine in the music business.
