   About the cush
"If You're Looking for Burlington's Coolest Band, Look No Further"
-Burlington Free Press

"Currently Vermont's secret, The Cush have delivered a fine record that's well worth seeking out and thoroughly deserves to generate the band much wider acclaim than they seem to have garnered thus far."
-Geraint Jones, Comes with a Smile (UK)



Much like the husband/wife duos at the creative core of Yo La Tengo and Sonic Youth, Burette and Gabrielle Douglas bring a sound all their own to The Cush—handcrafted psych-pop suites, sculpted with the help of vintage tape delays and the inspiration that can only come from enduring the frozen tundra environs of Burlington, Vermont. (The group's originally from the much toastier city of Dallas, Texas.)

With their sophomore release (New Appreciation for Sunshine) now available on Undertow Music Collective, The Cush has been tapped for the UK's Dream Machine Music Festival and plans on touring North America in anticipation of their third release.

Hey,

We're a band out of Burlington, We're big fans and our DJ- John Moses buys records from Cody all the time so we thought we'd try to get in touch. We'd love it if you were to check us out- what you like/what could be better. Its always great to hear from local established bands.

Thanks,

mk-ultra

Hey, you guys played a great set in montpelier a few nights ago. New kind of blue was great. The venue was nice, if not a bit deep in montpelier and the audience represented the full spectrum of humanity fairly well. Anyhow, looking forward to the next show and id love to see you with the Vacant Lots again, peace.
