Git Yer Friday Music Blog downloads.

Git Yer Friday Music Blog downloads.

The Boom Boom Box Posts First Song To Myspace

The Boom Boom Box Posts First Song To Myspace I dunno. Maybe I'm overreacting a bit. But, surely, I can't be the only person who's excited about the fact that various members of two GREAT (but kinda-on-hiatus) area bands, Pleasant Grove and Baboon , have teamed up to form a new band called The Boom Boom Box . And I can't be the only one eager to hear what's in-store for the band's debut EP, which is due out at some point in October. Well, we got a little bit of an answer earlier this week, as The [...]

To hear him describe it, they’re making some serious changes to the band's sound. What exactly those changes entail isn’t so clear. “We’re really focusing on [...]

Heartless Bastards at the Sons of Herman, Dallas

Heartless Bastards at the Sons of Herman, Dallas My brother, Indie Mom's Uncle T is also a music-lover. He recently supplied his own list of Top 10 CDs of 2006 for Speed of Dark, and he is our Dallas connection. A week ago he attended a show by the Heartless Bastards and sent me a detailed review and several photos. I've had to edit it somewhat for our format, but otherwise the words below are his. I was not familiar with opening band Pleasant Grove , so I looked them up and found they [...]

An Easy Rockin Sunday with Pleasant Grove, Fruit Bats, M.Ward, and The Long Winters

An Easy Rockin Sunday with Pleasant Grove, Fruit Bats, M.Ward, and The Long Winters "Impossible" by Pleasant Grove is off of their 2004 release The Art of Leaving. I was recently introduced to this band through the magic of a Myspace friend request. Pleasant Grove play what I like to call space roots rock: where classic roots music is augmented with atmospherics and bleeps. Pleasant Grove - Impossible.mp3 Off of the 2003 release, Mouthfuls, comes "A Bit of Wind" by the Fruit Bats. Fruit Bats - [...]
