Don't turn around, Jeremy, a tiger is about to eat you
The boys from Austin, Texas who tour ad infinitum are at it again, this time driving straight through Denver and hitting Boise, Idaho, for a quick show before making it to Seattle and a quick West Coast tour, including Los Angeles, before heading home (see schedule below).
The modern indie band with a 1970s power pop vibe and who is known for covering Billy Joel, has a chef who doubles as a drummer and has been known to sing on a bus (not to mention a great sophomore album, What Doesn't Kill Us) also just released last night their SugarHill Sessions digital EP. For free.
The five songs available are all acoustic with a great use of piano (rather than Drew Patrizi's keyboard) and done in one take: 'Sweet Lady,' 'The Other Side,' 'Self-Destruct,' 'To Each His Own' (a rousing favorite), and 'Cheap Wine' (a forgettable version until they rock out at 1:20 into the song, showing of that Jeremy Bruch is just as much the glue in this band by whacking the kettles as lead singer/songwriter Michael Kingcaid).
It's now available via eMusic and barsuk.com as a free download until November 17th.
November Touring:
10 Seattle, WA Chop Suey
11 Portland, OR Doug Fir Lounge
13 San Francisco, CA Popscene
14 Los Angeles, CA Echo
15 Costa Mesa, CA Detroit Bar
