Darkside's Dave Harrington

Full Rig Info: https://www.premierguitar.com/videos/rig-rundown/darkside Subscribe to PG's Channel: http://bit.ly/SubscribePGYouTube Guitarist Dave Harrington concedes that while there are a few mile markers in the music that he and musician Nicolas Jaar create as Darkside, improvisation has been the rule from day one. The experimental electronic trio’s latest record, Nothing, which released in February on Matador, was the first to feature new percussionist Tlacael Esparza. Taking the record on tour this year, Darkside stopped in at Nashville’s Brooklyn Bowl, where Harrington broke down his complex signal chains for PG’s Chris Kies.
