CMJ Recap: Day 3's Other Bands

Oct 29, 2008, 1:00pm

Skeletonbreath @ Cake Shop (Ernest Jenning Showcase): I don't know how I caught this band, I think I was just in the right place at the right time, but Skeletonbreath are an impressive three piece. Playing instrumental, progressive music led by an insane violinist generally isn't the way to the Top 40 charts, but then I don't think a band called Skeletonbreath care much about something like that.

Artists: Best Fwends, The Black Hollies, Charles Burst, Passion Pit, Skeletonbreath
