Andy Watts':musical sponge
Born of Bakersfield. Sioux City Sarsaparilla owns. Somewhere inside country, rock, folk, rap, and a thousand other genres they construct a sound that tears into the meso-posterior of casual listeners. A lot of bands try to emulate the raw honesty that emits from a blazing pile of wreckage mic'd in low-fi goodness. Given, most are shocked at the sonic adventure embarked upon whence in the midst of such amplified radosity, but the band is humble. They approach everyone with equal pretentiousness and patriotism.

i saw jimmy perform in ventura california with the robot ate me, mason lindahl, and drew danburry. he was amazing, after the show i attempted to buy a cd off of him, but he had none to be bought. i cried on the inside, and instead bought mason's cd, which was awesome.
after that i forgot jimmy's name, and i didn't remember him ever mentioning sioux city. but i couldn't get the lyrics "sink your teeth deep in sleep" (or something like that it's been a while now) out of my damn head. i scoured the local libraries for jimmy's name, looked in obscure encyclopedias and antiquated almanacs. no success. i contimplated suicide a few times to end the pain. but then, i read in my journalism class's 1994 text book that "we live in an age where computers allow for instantaneous transmition of information and allow people from all over the world to connect to each other." i came to the notion that possibly this "computer" was the answer to my search. using this machine i found drew danbury, and he gave me the name and the band, and here i am.
ok, so maybe that story is a tad embelished, but most of it is true, jimmy you ruled man. thanks for making great music and if i wasn't in $300 dollars of debt to my friend pete, i would glady and enthusiastically buy a cd if you have one. thanks.
