The band plays unabashed, hooky pop-rock. Some people tell them they sound like Elvis Costello, or Third Eye Blind. It's flattering. 2007 saw them self-producing the album in Mike (sings/strums) and Ariel (shreds) Podwal's childhood home, much to dad's delight. Converting living rooms into live rooms and vestibules into vocal booths, bassist Dane Sannicandro took on engineering duties as they entered the abyss of self-recording. Drummer Andy Fligel triumphantly recorded all of his drums over just two days. The rest of the guys took… longer. The band emerged from the thicket after 18 months, armed with a shiny collection of well-crafted pop songs..... ..There was, of course, great help from the outside world. Mike Kalajian (The Audition) and Bryan Russell (Straylight Run) lent their enormous production and engineering talents at various stages. Through Russell, the band was introduced to Claudius Mittendorfer (Panic at the Disco, Brand New, Muse), who signed on to mix the album..... ..Moving from the studio to the stage, the band is focused on playing locally as much as possible. In recent years, they've played shows with venerable acts like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy and Paramore. Stay tuned for more action..... ..Hooks on Tape.. is available via iTunes and the band's own e-store @ twoshosofrye.com. The e-store offers high-quality MP3's for $7.99 and limited edition CD's in silk-screened packaging for $11.99..... ...... Two Shots of Rye is like the pop-rock you thought doesn’t (or rather, can’t) exist anymore. They are the new incarnation of bands you equated with a life full of possibilities. You’re probably too jaded to believe such things, but "Eight-Nineteen" is a summer smash. - ..absolutepunk.net.. .... Two Shots Of Rye surely deserve every pair of ears that are lucky enough to hear them. This is one band that deserves to be pulled from the vacuum that is the rock and roll microcosm and exposed to the masses. It’s sunny and strummy and everything you could hope to hear this summer and, really, the rest of the year. Tell your friends, tell your parents, your neighbors and everyone else you know about this band. - ..thedailychorus.com.. .... The band has solid vocals combined with a strong, developed musical style. I was hooked within the first minute of the record and it was able keep my attention through the entire thing. Bottom line, this is a band and album you should seek out. - ..thealbumproject.net.. .... Hooks On Tape is energetic and charming, and Two Shots Of Rye succeed in not only creating an album that is enjoyable, but one that goes along with the summer weather perfectly. - ..forthesound.com.. .... .. .... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ..

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT KINDNESS ...

    “KIND HEARTS are the GARDENS,

    KIND THOUGHTS are the ROOTS,

    KIND WORDS are the FLOWERS,

    KIND DEEDS are the FRUITS,

    Take care of your GARDEN

    And keep out the WEEDS,

    Fill it with SUNSHINE

    KIND WORDS and KIND DEEDS.”

    ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

    KIND WORDS DO NOT COST MUCH

    YET THEY ACCOMPLISH MUCH!

    Don't worry about summer's RECORD HEAT,

    the DROUGHT, and those high ELECTRIC BILLS ...

    Than candlelight and cheer; It's the spirit of sweet friendship

    and kindness, It's HOPE REBORN AGAIN,  For peace,

    for understanding, And for goodwill to men!”

    MERRY CHRISTMAS THIS JULY MY DEAR FRIEND!
