wharf cat – Austin Town Hall

Brand New Gun Outfit

January 15, 2016 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Honestly, I didn’t expect this week. It seems like hit after hit has come my way, via my searching or just a massive amount of tunes being pushed out there. Still, it wouldn’t be a great week without this Gun Outfit tune to wrap things up with a little bit of alt-country perfection. Their new album Dream All Over just came out, but they have this great new Two Way Player EP ready for your ears via Wharf Cat. Maybe it’s a stretch, but it seems like this song is the crossroads where Kurt Vile and Silver Jews meet in the middle…it’s the sound of rolling on with just a hint of being an outsider; it’s the sound you’ve been looking for but didn’t know you were looking for, yet. The EP will be out on February 21st.

New Music from The Ukiah Drag

February 25, 2014 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Man, you’ve got to get down with this new track from The Ukiah Drag. Each time I indulge in a few listens, I hear little variances in what’s coming through. On the surface, you get the appearance of a soulful Western storyteller, but listen carefully. There’s all sort of discordant noise and brooding working far off in the distance of the track; it’s the kind of thing that could turn a good song into a great song in the live setting as the band works the crowd. I’m excited to hear what these guys have to offer, and you’ll get a chance too; their Dirt Trip/Poison Ivy 7″ comes out via Wharf Cat on March 4th!
