   The Buttonflies: General Info
Member Since10/13/2007
Band Websitebuttonflies.com
Band MembersBanana Dave on the acoustic guitar and Andrea on the banjo, dueling vocals by both.
InfluencesModest Mouse, the White Strpes, O'Death, The Avett Brothers, Dwight Yoakam, Levon Helm, Danzig, John Prine, Iron and Wine, Elvis, The Rolling Stones, The Boss, Bela Fleck, The Red hot Chili Peppers, Jeez, I could go on forever. All the bands for whom we've opened up, which including Paleface, Bombadil, The Corduroy Road, The Hellblinki Sextet, The Diablo Blues Band, the Bible Beaters, The Rabble Rousers, (R.I.P. Meuwl) Smokestack and the Foothill Fury, and again I could go on forever.
Sounds LikeRaunchy, irreverent, romantic, angry, comical, edgy, lyrics over vintage, rock-esque, folk-ish, bluesy banjo and acoustic guitar riffs. Lots of dueling male and female vocals. Harmonies, and hollering. Original songs with archetypal chord structures, with surprising builds, stops and changes.

Hey guys!  I've started posting songs to The WV Scene Playlist, but need the help of all the WV Area bands to decide how the Playlists should be done.  I'd really appreciate it if you took part in the poll I've posted on The WV Scene myspace page.  After all this is a site meant to look after the best interests of the artists whether they be professional or just beginning.  (Be sure to add our activity stream so that we can better communicate what it is we're trying to do).

Hey everyone!  It's about time to post some of your tunes on The WV Scene Playlist...  Until I come up with a better system I'll post the songs of the first ten bands who respond and I'm planning on including a wide variety of styles on the list.  Thanks so much!  (I won't be posting a song from my own band till later since this site isn't set up to promote my own self interests).
