Artists Adam Green and Kimya Dawson are very interesting people. While the are part of the folk music scene, their take on folk music is very different from the folk music of yesteryear. This isn't your grandmother's folk. As The Moldy Peaches, these two were leading proponents of the anti-folk movement.
While folk music of the past was concerned with serious issues and was a vehicle for social and political commentary, anti-folk is the complete opposite. Sometimes poking fun of its predecessor and other times simply being playful and lighthearted.
The Moldy Peaches definitely were at the forefront of this movement at its conception. Their concerts are always very intimate affairs. They play in usually small venues, with a stage set up that can only be described as looking like a backdrop to some sort of play put on by an elementary school's first grade class.
Green and Dawson themselves don't dress extravagantly, though, opting for casual clothing that's both comfortable but somehow unique to the average person. They sit side by side with nothing but guitars. Sometimes, this is completely not the case.
When they play outdoors, they tend to think bigger, and sometimes dress in a funny manner, like with skin tight suits, sequins, and capes. In bigger venues, they are also accompanied by other musicians to help recreate their music. No matter the place, however, the crowd is always the same; laid back and somewhat quiet, only clapping and cheering at the beginning and the end of a song.
