The Baths…
We’ve been very busy around putting together live shows in our spare non-blogging moments. It’s especially obvious today as we continue to announce show after show – SXSW day parties, official showcases & a pre-SXSW show in NYC included. Next up, and even sooner….
BrooklynVegan will be hosting a happy hour event at this year’s Noise Pop 2010 (in San Francisco from February 23rd to March 1st) on Saturday, February 27th at Benders Bar (806 South Van Ness Ave). For this show we decided to go with three local San Francisco Bay Area bands who we’ve been curious to check out and who were not already playing any other shows at the festival. The result: Odawas, The Baths and That Ghost. The three bands will play the free afternoon show on 2/27 from 4-7pm (21+) (thanks to Panache for their help with the booking!).
Odawas…
Odawas are a hazy folk-garage band on Jagjaguwar – their “Harmless Lover’s Discourse” off last year’s The Blue Depths is above.
The Baths do Kinks-style rock that gets both dirty and acoustic; they’re appropriately touring with Thee Oh Sees this March (both bands will be at SXSW and MtyMx).
That Ghost, one Ryan Schmale who hails from Sonoma County, CA (north of SF), hides his vocals behind a wall of fog. His tune “The Red Bow” is above; other material from him is available from Twosyllable Records.
All three bands, like Noise Pop, are local to the San Francisco Bay Area. Yes, even Odawas…
MOKB: How is California treating you? Have you noticed any difference in the way that people respond to your music there, in comparison to your time spent in Chicago and/or Bloomington?
Michael Tapscott of Odawas: It’s been fantastic here. There seems to be a lot of local support for what we are doing, and an abundance of supportive, creative people around. We left good friends in Chicago at our jobs and in musical friends, but we never quite caught on there. It was a transitional year when we were there anyway. Bloomington is a paradise. I miss it everyday. But when we left, it was time to go.
The full Noise Pop schedule is here.
Will you be there? We also have a bunch of free tickets to giveaway to other Noise Pop shows. Details on those contests, videos and all Baths tour dates are below…
