TAB the Band



Though TAB the band has only existed since January 2007, it has accomplished a lot in its short career. The Boston band has earned respect as an energetic and powerful live act. With 2 EPs and a full length record, the band, Tony Perry-guitar, Adrian Perry-vocals, bass, and Ben Tileston-drums, has established a back to basics rock sound that has been missing from the American musical landscape. On their debut LP, 'Pulling Out Just Enough to Win' you can hear the promise of a rock band that understands its history but also is built for any time period, regardless of trend, fad or passing fancy. TAB the Band is currently recording its second album which will be ready for release in fall 08. If you're tired of bands auto-tuning the character out of their music and making every snare hit fit into a grid, then check out TAB the Band.

dirty on purpose



Often described as ethereal and emotional space-rock, Dirty on Purpose, a four-piece from Brooklyn, NY, beautifully combine sonic washes of noise with delicate, pretty harmonies. Hallelujah Sirens features 10 brand new, rich and diverse songs that span from upbeat tracks like "No Radio" and "Monument" to songs that build up slowly and explode with intensity like "Always Looking" and "Fake Lakes."

With four songwriters and three main vocalists contributing to the group's overall sound, Dirty on Purpose create music that is wholly original, while paying tribute to their shoegazer, noise and pop influences. Though the journey has been slow and steady, the reward has been tremendous – reaching and realizing their very own musical landscape. Doug Marvin, Joseph Jurewicz, George Wilson and DJ Boudreau are the conductors of their own orchestra, and Hallelujah Sirens is their latest opus.

Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Jaymay contributed female vocals to a number of tracks on Hallelujah Sirens, including "Light Pollution," "Kill Our City," and "Marfa Lights." Her beautiful harmonies enrich the songs with finesse and charm.

For songs like "No Radio," the band also pulled in a horns section complete with a trombone, saxophone and trumpet to give the robust track that extra added bit of excitement. Other tracks like "Lake Effect" and "Your Summer Dress" called for a strings section of viola and cello. Anne Brewster, formerly of Sea Ray, contributed on cello.

After playing The Siren Festival in Brooklyn, NY on July 15th the band will set out on a national tour to support their new album. This is a group that has steadily built up a following around the world, giving them time to develop and expand as musicians and gel as a band. They aim to keep their career long and prolific. Keep an eye out for them, and see them grow and mature, carving out their own little niche in musical history.

tiny animals



Tiny Animals kicks so much ass that it's ridiculous. The members of the band, Chris, Rita, and Phil, are all siblings. Except for Phil. Their music is sweet sweetness, but really the only reason you should come to see their show is for the hot drummer. She's a girl.

Come see them perform before they're so huge they won't fit in your pants. Rock music.

pink and noseworthy



Pink & Noseworthy, an indie neo-folk duo from Los Angeles, consists of singer-songwriters Shanee Pink and Mark Noseworthy. The pair met during a recording session for a song penned by Shanee at the beginning of her solo effort. Mark contributed precious guitar work, giving the recording a sound that both Shanee and her brother, producer Ran Pink, connected with immediately. "Reason To Live" became the first collabortion between Pink & Noseworthy, and the instant creative bond propelled a two-month whirlwind of songwriting, jamming and recording that culminated in their eponymous debut album.
