Imagine an appropriation of sounds, a synthesis of emotionally driven poetry with experimental flavors in rhythm and bass. From a hum to a roar the guitar vacillates melodically between dirty noise and meticulous rhapsody. The front woman serenades languidly in Russian and English, and duets with the male vocalist in tempestuous euphony. The bass lines pull at your heartstrings and cling to your eardrums, as the drums pound hypnotizing your body to move in time. Their song styles range from danceable to downright shoe-gazing, but retain a reverence to their roots of rock and roll, and show affection for the independent artists who paved the way before them- reorganizing old ideals with new execution. This is something you need to experience for yourself, simplicity with a textured resonance that holds an offering to those who have the pallet for musical delicacies. At the end of the rabbit hole you fall into the echoes of Tunnel.

Mark Dignam has been bumping into Paul Luc and Ben Shannon a lot, at Treelady Studios, where they are all working, on their upcoming albums. They admire each others work so much, they decided to put together what promises to be, a mini singer/songwriter festival.. Watch for special guests and a very memorable night at The Rex Theater, 1602 East Carson Street. Pittsburgh, PA 15203. 8pm. $10.
We are back from our mini-tour! We ended up having to squat in New Orleans and found a broken MacBook in the back room and took it with us. 8) Chicago is REALLY nice as well. Did you know that it is called the 'Windy City' not because of the air off the great lake but because of the politicians being flaky? I found this out! Oh man, I am so behind in my response to you and Halloween was wonderful and drunk in the southern city. We went into one of the oldest above ground graveyards and tried to take a photograph and the camera would NOT turn on. It worked perfectly before and after the graveyard. I want to show you some ridiculous pictures from the adventure when we get them off the camera card. Either/or, I need to set up a show with you because I respect your opinionated thoughts.
ahh! that is mt favorite type of picture (blurred) as wel as low light and rainy day. lets set up a show together soon? i have to set something up for 11/5-10, 11/23, 12/12 and some things in-between-er. if you want to drive my girlfriend and i to New Orleans for the show on the 27th of October.. you can play a nice long set AND we could all spend All Hallows Eve in Louisiana together? we would split the gas/tolls!
