Gus Baldwin and the Sketch Drop Luxury Television
It’d been a minute since I caught a Gus Baldwin show, and while he was technically playing as a member of Bubba Lucky, his performance reminded me of the incredible guitar work that courses through his own band’s new LP. Clicking play below, there’s an immediacy in the songwriting that’s reminiscent of acts like Jay Reatard; I love the frantic nature that’s emphasized by the screeching guitar licks that bounce across the speakers. The whole band gets in on the action here too, taking almost a full minute of instrumental breakdowns to flex their musical skillset before they rip right towards the close. Gus Baldwin and the Sketch drop their self-titled LP on January 31st.
