Amy Farrand has traveled a reckless road to become a top local musician
The Kansas City Star, by Timothy Finn – October 31, 2010
She most recently became the drummer in Atlantic Fadeout, but not without consideration and negotiation. The band was started by Henderson and her husband, Chris Meck, formerly of The Gaslights.
“I said, ‘What kind of band are you going to be?’ ” Farrand said. “If you want to be something other than The Gaslights, put down the acoustic guitars. Those are for solo sets and your couch. They’re fine sometimes, but not in my rock band.”
Farrand’s frankness is well-known in some local music circles. Henderson remembers her first encounter with Farrand, back in her brat days.
“She terrified me,” Henderson said. “We were introduced and she sort of scowled at me and went back to her whiskey. It was a different time — the Sister Mary days. There were six or seven girls in music in this town and she was one. I could barely play the guitar and was singing to my cat in my apartment then. She was a force, with palpable energy.”
Crossroads Music Fest 2010: Rocked Out
PresentMagazine.com, By Pete Dulin – September 13, 2010
Atlantic Fadeout is the latest project by Abigail Henderson and Chris Meck (of The Gaslights, Tiny Horse) that also features Amy Farrand on drums and Dutch Humphrey on bass. Henderson and Farrand are two of the most talented women rocking Kansas City. The band held nothing back and put their heart and humor into a powerful set.
Epilogue: CMF
Back to Rockville, By Timothy Finn (The Star) – September 13, 2010
I saw several bands on Saturday I hadn’t seen before: Faster Horses, Atlantic Fadeout, the Caves and Dead Voices. … It was all good; some of it was really good. … Atlantic Fadeout: a “Some Girls” cover that will not be forgotten.
The sixth annual Crossroads Music Festival: booze, music and cosmic vibes
Pitch Wayward Blog, By Elke Mermis – September 13, 2010
It was the first time I’d seen Altantic Fadeout in the flesh, which is the new project of Chris Meck and Abigail Henderson (of the Gaslights and Tiny Horse), Amy Farrand (of American Catastrophe), and Dutch Humphrey (Elkhart). Henderson — clad in a black T-shirt and baseball cap — belted bluesy wails over the band’s gnarled, twangy rock songs. (It sounded a bit like the Drive-By Truckers’ more rowdy numbers, with a female vocalist.) Press, Crosstown Station’s new upstairs venue, seemed like an incredibly pristine location for the low-slung, Southern-rock-tinged songs that Altantic Fadeout threw down. People lounged on low, leather couches with beers, passively absorbing the band’s chunky riffs. The verdict? Right band, wrong venue.
