Post Description

Cabinet formed in 2006 and quickly became a regional favorite. Plenty of touring, festivals, and a few albums later, and the six-piece group gained nationwide attention. Their latest studio album, “Leap,” will appeal to early fans as well as newcomers. The rise of Americana and alt-country has ensured a home on the range for the talented, twangy sextet, and “Leap” secures their ascension from hometown to homegrown. 
Cabinet revived two songs – the playful “Two Timer” and haunting “Oxygen” – that premiered on singer Pappy Biondo’s solo album, “Pappy Time.” Both songs have a distant yet lively sound and a fresh ensemble approach. The ensemble includes cousins and vocalists Pappy and J.P. Biondo, who respectively play banjo and mandolin, guitarist Mickey Coviello, bassist Dylan Skursky, drummer Jami Novak, and Todd Kopec on fiddle.
“Leap’s” standout tracks include a new take on the previously recorded “Eleanor” – which showcases the strings alongside J.P.’s purring vocals – in addition to the Americana anthem “Hit it on the Head,” with harmonies that soar over fiddle and banjo banter, and, finally, the toe-tapping, shoulder-rolling, Rust Belt soul shanty “Heavy Rain.” Among the lyricized songs is “Susquehanna Breakdown,” a jaunty instrumental jam highlighted by lighting-quick banjo and rushing river fiddling. 
“Leap” drifts seamlessly from rustic country to classic Americana, from jamboree to jam band. This album delivers a mature culmination of genres and content from a group that has leapt the gap from localized gigs to a nationally recognized band.
