If a band could be a sandwhich, Fattback is the Hero. In a given set, Fattback can go from sounding roots rock, to synth-driven power pop, to honky-tonk, to funk and more. Rich harmonies, and often hilarious lyrics seal the deal for the St. Louis natives, who when asked to describe themselves, came up only with "...moose rock". Fattback has been featured twice on KDHX radio, most recently on the Local Artist Spotlight. And also in a review by St. Louis Sound magazine which describes them as having "..clever lyrics and progressive turnarounds..rounded attack, polyphonic riffs..and blessedly tight rythymic runs." Fattback will spend much of 2007 on the road pushing their new release "Briefly A Zombie"
"St. Louis band Fattback excels at performing under the influence and has yet to be a issued a citation for sucking." - Lawrence.com
Hee hee hee!!!! Go check y'alls frigerator. I left a little something in there. By the way, does anyone know how to do a life-like rendering of Homer Simpson on a shiny surface?

REPOST THIS!!! help keep original music wedsndays going!!
charlack pub needs at least 2 more bands for this wednsday april 30th,or he will have to cancel the show...this will be his second in a row that he has to cancel & if this happens,then original music wednsdays are over
if youre a local music fan these are free shows that you can come to every other wednsday & see 3 or 4 bands for free so theres no reason not to get out & see some live music
if youre a band,then this is a win win for you because you get a PAYING gig in the middle of the week where there isnt alot of other competing shows,at a new place youve probably never played before so you have the potential to make new fans,this venue /promoter buys local bands cds,tells the crowd to buy them as well & they play them over the speaker system in the bar for the regular patrons & this bar may be small but it does get packed up with probably a hundred people & on a wednsday night thats a hell of a crowd also for playing the charlack pub you get special deals on videos...you can either get one or two songs free(they pay me so you dont have to)or you can get a half hour set for only $10 & they will use your video to promote you so you get free promotion as well you cant beat it!!!
help the stl music scene by helping those that are busting their ass to help you!!! get ahold of jason at myspace. com/liveatthecharlackpub
I was only able to listen to ...Briefly a Zombie three times this week. That's down from my average. You fellas are fucking great musicians. Any news on the new album?
