Music news A Fight to the Death’s gentlemanly demeanor
Posted by Chad Radford @ChadRad on Wed, May 12, 2010 at 2:00 PM
The title of A Fight to the Death's second CD, Gesture of a Gentleman, telegraphs a story in just four short words. But not even the group's singer and ukulele player CJ Bargamian can tell you what it's about.
"The title comes from a quote in some old movie that our drummer Mark Carbone saw, probably a year ago, and has kept in the back of his head," Bargamian says. "I don't know the name of the movie, and Mark probably can't tell you, either. But he thought it was appropriate for our routine of wearing suits when we play, and for the kind of Devotchka-meets-Dean Martin thing we go for."
