   About The Knew
The Knew delivers their songs in a whirlwind of rock fury. The use of slide guitar and simple, steady drum beats makes the sound an ear-pleasing blend of punk and roots.

History

The Knew is comprised of four members that look closely related and may very well be in some branch of the tree. They are a foursome that has energy on the brain that is translated through live shows and their two most recent EPs.

The band's 2007 EP, Holladay, ranges from chain-gang blues to uptempo country-punk, and was released in July of that year. Fueled by favorable reviews, the band soon put together a new album full of tasty rock basics as well as new approaches to blues and roots music, releasing Boom Bust in July 2008.

The band began 2009 with a tour along the west coast, and are scheduled to appear at the Monolith Festival and CMJ Marathon in the Fall. Recording for their debut full-length started in August, and they plan to release it later in the year.

Fellow Buttrock Surfers: 

Huge Contrats on CMJ.  More importantly (to us anyway), can't wait for October 24th.  Should be a drunken brawl of Biblical proportions.  Word to your moms.
