   About Tacoma Narrows
Tacoma Narrows ALMOST make rock music with alternative country roots. Post punk influences turn moody pop numbers on their side with guitar textures that would make Sonic Youth proud. Kirk Pratt's songwriting, owing a debt to mid-period Byrds, Gram Parsons, The Band and Elliott Smith anchors the sound with sincere vocals, catchy melodies and finger-picked guitar. A pulsing rhythm section drives with hypnotic precision. The effect is like an old folk ballad played by a kraut-rock band. This is rock music for record store nerds and your mom.

TimeOut Chicago Critic's Pick: "Local alt-country outfit Tacoma Narrows shows a lot of promise on its recent demos, recalling the songwriting smarts of heavyweights like Wilco and Ryan Adams."

Hi, I'm a first time caller, longtime listener and a big fan. In the second line of "a ghost is closing in" do you say "a bizarre Alaskan wound"?

Thanks for taking my call. I'll hang up and wait for my answer.
