My wife recently turned me on to this band and today, we went to a private show of the band here in Seattle. I was amazed to see the guitarist break out his JG 360LH. I was in awe at this band and hearing the sounds come out of Christian Blands Twinverb.
Anyway, for fans of 13th Floor Elevators, VU, Jesus and Mary Chain, Spacemen 3, The Warlocks (the female bassist plays a 4003), Brian Jonestown Massacre, et al., give them a listen. I'm about to see them again tonight.

These guys are cool. "Drone and Roll"! I didn't know they played Rics.

Here's a show from Seattle back in February playing at Easy Street Records, which is one the best record stores in Seattle.

Saw them a while back and they were very very good. The singer uses a EH Holy Grail pedal to get that cool reverb.

Great band, great instruments and killer female drummer. Christian's selling a bass right now, not a Rick though.
