Pretty rad show tonight at The Rhythm Room. San Franciscinites Papercuts are in town, so they figured they would play a show to make some quick cash. Local bad asses Gospel Claws will also be playing, as will hard to find anything about them on the internet band Banjo or Freakout. Tickets are only $8 and can be purchased HERE

Did you know that there is a pretty big deal show going on tonight at The Rhythm Room? Well there is. Just look at that gosh dang poster! That picture that all the words are on top of up there... I took that picture. Anywho... The Miniature Tigers are back in town to play a show. Alvin Band, Pepper Rabbit, Gospel Claws and ROAR are also playing. That would be a show you wouldn't want to miss even without Mini T's.

Every year around this time I know how Cinderella felt. A combination of lack of funds and lack of time result in me missing the SXSW ball. So a big thank you to Team Clermont and Greyday Records for providing an SXSW in my living room. For those of you lucky enough to be the two companies have teamed up to present an official showcase Thursday, March 17 at Easy Tiger Patio (formerly Habana Calle 6) from 8PM to 2AM. Just don't expect to see me there as I'll be [...]

Gospel Claws & Kinch are each celebrating SXSW 2011 with the release of new singles! With the release of their debut LP C-L-A-W-S in October 2010, Phoenix natives, Gospel Claws had enough soul to spread their "gospel" and enough raw energy to still be called "claws." They headed back to the studio last month to record a new single I Can, I Will , which will be released digitally on 1st March. Download Gospel Claws - I Can, I [...]

Want some news on two of Phoenix's best bands? Do you want them all in one post? Do you want vague facts? Do you want links to verify those facts? Well then you came to the somewhat right place. I will give you news, that may or may not contain facts, only time will tell... KINCH : They are going on tour, a tour that will include SXSW shows in Austin. They have a new single that has something to do with sails or something ;-) [...]

Gospel Claws - Like A Friend [Pulp] | zs

From Tempe, Arizona... Gospel Claws song "Avenues" is cheerful, reverb-pop. The chorus is reminiscent of hits from the 50's, with a drum-beat that'll make one think of those "Wonders".... or should we say "Oneders". Don't be confused - this song is well worth downloading and listening to over and over again. Oh look! There's a download link, below. Fancy that. ///DOWNLOAD/// "Avenues" Share |
We've said in the past that Gospel Claws play über-catchy indie pop with clever lyrics and, not surprisingly, a dash of gospel soul, and we're standing by that assessment. The Tempe, Ariz., band released the 11-track C-L-A-W-S (Common Wall/Modern Art) two months ago, and to wrap up a successful year of music making, the quintet has recorded [...]

1. Keegan DeWitt - "Two Hearts" (The quite prolific and ever-changing songwriter returns with a new 7" Two Hearts/Reluctance , out now on Theory 8 Records. The title track is ultra catchy and danceable indie-pop, featuring vocals from Isaaca Byrd of Alabama-based indie-folk band The Bridges.) http://www.keegandewitt.com/ Download: http://keegandewitt.com/twohea rts.mp3 2. U.S. Royalty - "Equestrian" (First single from their debut full-length Mirrors due out Jan. 25th features bluesy indie folk [...]

As a holiday gift to all blogs and online magazines etc., Tempe, AZ band, Gospel Claws have recorded a cover of one of their favorite tunes, Like A Friend from Pulp's This Is Hardcore . Having recently released their album C-L-A-W-S to much critical acclaim, the quintet play a soul-inflected rock with a swagger and poise that is nothing if not infectious. So take a listen to the cover and a couple of tracks from the album - if you like what you hear you can buy [...]
Given the volume of music available for consideration on One Track Mind, we invariably have to pass on a lot of tasty morsels. [tweetmeme] In a desire to share even more great, free music with you, the Sunday Sampler offers a handful of tracks without the usual critical and biographical write-up. Less talk, more tunes. Gospel Claws "Summer Nights Lakeside" from C - L - A - W - S [ released [...]

Gospel Claws formed in late fall of 2007 when Marquard decided to team up with long time friend Sloan Walters. Marquard stepped away from his founding role in Dear and the Headlights in the fall of that year and tapped into the enormous catalog of songs that he had amassed outside of the band. John Mulhern was a long time friend of both Sloan and Joel, who was listening in on a practice one day when Sloan had the idea to put a bass on him and teach him how to play it. Mulhern had never played anything besides [...]

Following in the steps of The Killers and Killer-esque bands, Gospel Claws take a good thing and make it pretty much the same. Aside from Kermit The Frog sounding vocalist with a constant bubble in his throat, the first half of this song booms with energy and doesn't want to slow down. Around the half-point mark, Walk Me Down takes a drastic turn and flows into something more appealing and harmonizing. Gospel Claws debut LP, entitled C-L-A-W-S came out yesterday via Common Wall Media/Modern Art Records. [...]

"this day will never happen again" erschien bereits im juni, muss aber angesichts seiner ausgesprochenen sensitivität erwähnt werden, für die veröffentlichung zeichnete dead bees records verantwortlich, die londoner band muss man wohl unter psychedelic pop subsumieren: the chemistry set - regarde le ciel (look to the sky) habe ich monatelang im schussfeld gehabt und doch unglücklicherweise immer wieder außer acht gelassen, die band aus toronto um singer / songwriter kat burns legte im juni "carriage" vor, das dritte full length der folkpopper: forest city [...]
