Led by Burlington, Vermont-based musician Zachary James, Dari Bay is the result of a twisted home recording project gone horribly right. His eccentric lo-fi sound evolved into more grounded (if still slightly surreal) expressions by the time of Longest Day of the Year, a 2023 album that found Dari Bay’s experimental spirit folding into deceptively neutral, unassuming tunes. Double Double Whammy is pleased to be teaming up with Dari Bay, beginning with the expanded reissue of Longest Day of the Year (Originally a self-released and minimally distributed affair) in 2026.
