Coach House Sounds
One of the bands I play with, Reds and Blue, recently visited Coach House Sounds to record a session. The Coach House studio is exactly as it sounds, it is the basement room of a Coach House nestled into the Wrigleyville neighborhood, close to one of my favorite venues, Schubas. We basically showed up with [...]
When Skulls! Attack!
The very first Head of Skulls! song played as the new lineup: Not bad for a handful of practices! Pass it on
Antelope
These videos of bands playing live @ Fort Reno in DC are really great. One of my favorite bands to emerge from the past decade has been Antelope. I have always been so struck by the simplistic yet transcendental nature of their music. These two songs back to back are spectacular. It is a damn [...]
Post Honeymoon
Gotta love some Post Honeymoon. Perfect Sunday evening jams. Pass it on
Haymarket Riot
Haymarket Riot was one of the opening bands for a show I played this weekend with a band I joined recently, Head of Skulls! Haymarket Riot have been friends of mine for many years now, and they continue to kick serious ass. Pass it on
Father
Thanks for the heads up Justin, this video kills. I would have been about to graduate Jr High when this video was made. I wonder what could have been had I seen a band like Hoover at that time in my life. Pass it on
The 1900s Take On the Pointer Sisters
In Playboy! Ok, well playboy.com, same difference. The link is safe for work, so don’t worry about that. I guess covers are what’s hot for 2010, because everywhere I look, someone is doing one (I, too, am guilty). Anyways, way to kill this one, The 1900s! This version sounds amazing! Pass it on
Ted Leo & The Pharmacists + Ralph Darden = Fugazi(!)
This will probably be the coolest thing I’ll see all week. Ralph Darden of the Jai Alai Savant joins Ted Leo & The Pharmacists for a rousing rendition of Fugazi’s Merchandise. Wish I could have made it out to this show, Ted always does some fun stuff when he is in town. I dig their [...]
Made it to Gauge
Got to Bottom Lounge in time to see about 1/2 of Gauge’s set. They sounded really great, and it felt really good to be there to honor these guys. Pass it on
