After successfully scaring the pants off of the residents in their own hometown, Fabric eventually found comfort in their native Bloomington, Indiana for all those who welcomed their unorthodox combination of electronic, rock, and bluegrass. With some U.S. touring experience under their belt as well as having the chance to share the stage with Weezer, Yo La Tengo, and Red Red Meat and Beck, members Chris Kupersmith (guitars/ vocals), Tina Barbieri (bass), and Scott Ewing (keyboards) released their debut, Woolly Mammoth, in 1997 courtesy of Mammoth Records. ~ Mike DaRonco
