This Saturday, July 11th, will see the release of Mean Tambourines EP entitled War. The four track rock excursion was produced by Roger Alan Nichols and will be available at shows starting immediately. The band will be playing at Exit/In, for free, along with The Non Commissioned Officers, Mikky Ekko and Perrin Lamb. If you’re into catchy rock songs with memorable hooks sung via vocals with just a hint of desperation and earnesty (read that as a compliment, as it is meant as one) then you’ll want to head out this Saturday to Exit/In.

Finding artists for these podcasts can sometimes be a laborious task – as I prefer to include artists that have additional materials beyond the one included track that is worth checking out. Cherry picking one good song here and there would be much easier but it’s always a bummer to dive further into a newly discovered artists catalog of works just to discover that you’ve already heard their best (and possibly only worthwhile) offering. All that being said, I’ve done my best to vet each of these artists beyond just the one song and I’m happy to report they hold up.

Enjoy the podcast and, by all means, investigate more on each of these offerings.

Eliza The Arrow

Posted Mon July 6, 2009

There’s been a slow breadcrumbing of news from EG Cameron and D Schroader (previously known as Forget Cassettes) but it appears the trickle has turned into a full-on rush of new information. We already had the teaser for “Veneration”, the podcast preview and Aaron Hartley’s sneak peeks on Out the Other but now there’s a full official website for the new project Eliza the Arrow. There’s news of a single on the way July 27th featuring “Toast the Tiger” and a demo for “Double Life” – both streamable from the site – and some insight into the trials and tribulations of getting the project off the ground.

Hopefully all this new information means that live dates will start accumulating again.
