Brooklyn Vegan has released the band list for their Thursday and Friday afternoon parties at Cheer Up Charlie's but they don't have set times or days yet. I'm getting impatient...
This is a duo out of Liverpool that is playing one of those days. They are also playing Thursday at Pershing for the Paste Party at 5:30pm. They also play Hotel Vegas on Friday but there is no set time yet.
Stereogum gives them the "Band To Watch" treatment, saying:
Sometimes the music stretches out into post-rock expansiveness (“The Sea Has Stretch Marks”), while elsewhere it feels like Springsteen took a wrong turn down a dingy side-street from his highway to freedom (it wasn’t a surprise when the band covered Nebraska highlight “State Trooper,” one of the creepiest songs the Boss has ever put to tape, in 2020).
You can hear their version of "State Trooper" here. Very cool. That whole performance is great. Makes me want to see them live.
King Hannah songs typically begin with an ominous rumble before gradually erupting into spark-shooting discord, following a similar path from the swamp to the scrapyard as Nick Cave and PJ Harvey before them, while coasting on a dirty-dub undercurrent that suggests a truckstop Portishead.
They're coming back to Mohawk Indoors on May 11th. We'll be out of town.
"Crème Brûlée" is really good.
This song has a Nick Cave vibe.
