  • Biografía

    Excuses for Skipping are a San Francisco indie rock quartet whose 2007 debut Out of Work Early has earned them a bevy of strong reviews for its mix of spacey experimental elements and thick soaring melodies. The album showcases a strong control of both dynamics and layering, as the band can use powerful stacked vocal harmonies and guitars just as well as it can deconstruct those textures into compelling moody pieces. Their catchy, dense rock is both familiar and unplaceable and comes from a willingness to experiment with styles drawn from their diverse musical backgrounds, and frequently inspired by their other artistic interests. While the band arises out of something of a songwriting experiment for guitarists Tammy and Linda, the addition of bassist Wendy and drummer Ezekiel have added a dancier feel now reflected in the band’s frequent and well-received live shows at local clubs, house parties, and street festivals. After finishing up a Southwest tour with local favorites, Jeepster--that culminated in a blistering performance at SXSW’s Gay bi Gay Gay festival--they are now back in the studio recording their second album, due for release in Spring of 2010. Las Vegas Weekly says: Imagine if Kevin Shields had produced The Go-Go’s and you’ve got some idea where this Bay Area-based, all-female quartet is coming from. Lush, shoegazey backdrops envelop bubblegum-pop hooks on enjoyable (if slightly ephemeral) tunes. .............. Want an EFS banner on your MySpace? Click ..here.. to get one! .. .. ..
