Major Friday Jam From Papa

Leave a comment

papaAt the end of a long work week, or at the continuation of a work week for those of us who don’t work a 9-5, you need to stop and take a moment to just jam. Papa, hailing out of LA, have got the perfect new tune for doing just this called “Hold On.” This track is a funky, dance ready groove with definite Bowie swagger to it that will surely set your feet to moving through to those weekend vibes. Take a listen and enjoy.

Date 8/22/13
Location Stubbs
Doors 10pm
Tickets $15 @ Door or $8 w/ CWK Ticket

So as we create this post, and you read this, tickets are probably going pretty fast so you better get a move on.  Just posted a few hours ago is a rare performance by local band Okkervil River at smaller venue Stubbs on the inside stage.  To be blunt, I could honestly care less about seeing Cold War Kids play their new material, but a ticket to that show will get you into this one.  Those not attending the CWK show, I recommend buying now and getting yourself in line super early.

More New Pop From Papa

Leave a comment

tx3p_PAPAflagTravisSchneider_1Papa is a band that I’ve posted about on this site before and I’ve grown to enjoy their music the more and more I listen.  Just a month ago I posted up new track “If You’re My Girl, Then I’m Your Man”, and the band are already back with this great new pop track “Young Rut”.  Similar to the older tune, this one has an incredible driving sound with some spooky, dark vocals over everything to create one special pop track.

Stay tuned for a release date for Papa’s debut album coming this fall on Loma Vista.

Great Driving Pop From PAPA

Leave a comment

tx3p_PAPAflagTravisSchneider_1PAPA is a band that I’ve really been into over the last couple of years.  In that span, they have yet to send me a tune that I didn’t immediately find interesting and unique.  This new track just sent my way “If You’re My Girl, Then I’m Your Man” is yet another tune that I’m finding irresistible from the second I hit play.  I’m drawn in with the driving sound and swirling guitars that build and build throughout the entire 4 and half minutes of the song.  I dare you to not enjoy this.

This track appears on a new 7″ coming out on June 25th featuring previously heard song “Put Me to Work” on the flip side.

New Driving Rock Number From PAPA

Leave a comment

PAPA is a band that I have posted about in the past on numerous occasions and have continued to stay i touch with the band as they progress musically.  This new song “Put Me To Work” was just sent our way and I’m ready to say that it’s by far the most enjoyable song the band has ever done.  It has a great driving rock sound and a downright grittiness to it that’s totally worthy of many repeat listens.  The band will be dropping their debut full length sometime next year and this is the first single of new material from that LP.
