About
Following their Academy Award-nominated soundtrack for <i>Little Miss Sunshine</i>, DeVotchKa prove that they were born for the spotlight with <i>A Mad & Faithful Telling</i>, a triumphant, baroque gypsy-pop tapestry. Armed with upbeat brass, wily strings, jittery accordion, and the operatic vocals of frontman Nick Urata, they let loose on jaunty songs like “Basso Profundo” and “Head Honcho,” while slower numbers like the twinkling “The Clockwise Witness” display the band’s aching, theatrical sense of beauty.
