Warm Soda @ Cake Shop, 3/28/2013
Bay Area power pop crunchers Warm Soda buzzed into NYC last night (3/28), ripping up Cake Shop to an excited crowd. Part of the appeal of the band’s terrific debut album is the production which turns anything you listen to it on into a ’70s AM radio. (The great songs are the main attraction, of course.) Live, however, the songs open up to a roar. As much as I love their album, I hope Warm Soda explore the world of mid-fi for the next album. Which could be soon, given Matthew Melton’s rate of turning out songs with his old band Bare Wires. I didn’t catch them this time but Melton told our photographer that they plan on returning to NYC soon. Meanwhile, more pics from Cake Shop below…
