Are you coming to The Strutt‘s amazing show this Wednesday? If not, allow me to attempt to convince you otherwise. You probably have not heard of these bands before and might be wondering why you should care about this show. Here’s why:
Rangda is pretty much the supergroup of the decade. Comprised of Sir Richard Bishop from Sun City Girls, Ben Chasney from Six Organs Of Admittance and Comets On Fire, and Chris Corsano who has most recently been doing a lot of work with Bjork. Suffice it say that these guys have been around the bloc more than a few times and are pretty much masters of their instruments(guitar, guitar, drums). If you want more info, check out this interview or the video posted below.
Stare Case is the new project from Nate Young and John Olson. If you don’t know them by name, you’ve probably heard of their other band, WOLF EYES. Stare Case tends toward the more ambient side of noise. Some people have even called this their “blues project”. Check it.
Forget The Times is the brand new project from myself and Benji of Rotten Wood Moon, Peter of The Philly Crawlers and Jarad from Son Drop and just about every other band in Kalamazoo. We sound a lot like Rangda except we have an extra guitar player and maybe about 1/8th of the talent.
If this at all sounds like something you’d be interested in, PLEASE MAKE IT A POINT TO COME OUT. These first big shows at The Strutt are crucial. The more people we can bring out for shows like this, the more interesting bands I can start bringing in. Let’s work together and put Kalamazoo back on the map for cool music!!!
