The Pass, You’re My Density, Dude Plays Saxophone, OK Deejays, DJ Sam Sneed @ Zanzabar – 12/12

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

December 12th is my birthday and I could not ask for a better show to be scheduled in town for that night.  Three of my favorite local bands, The Pass, You’re My Density and Dude Plays Saxophone are playing at Zanzabar with OK Deejays and DJ Sam Sneed.  Not only is the line-up amazing, it is for a good cause.  The show costs $5, but if you bring three canned goods, you get in free.  Proceeds will benefit Kentucky Harvest.

The States w/ Music Video & You’re My Density @ Skull Alley – 9/21

Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

http://thestatesonline.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/STATES_promo_1.jpg

Monday, September 21st
Skull Alley
The States w/ Music Video and Your My Density
1017 E Broadway
Louisville, KY
myspace.com/skull_alley
$7 / All Ages

NYC’s The States will be releasing We Are The Erasers September 22nd on Genious Collective Records.  We Are The Erasers is the follow up to Path Of Least Resistance released independently by The States in late 2007 concurrently sending them on a tornadic tour of the US in 2008.

The States’s razor-edged rock has the uncanny ability to evoke Radiohead-like dreamscapes, Zeppelin-inspired bombast, and an Orwellian political sensibility…often in the same song. Their forthcoming new album, produced by Chris Grainger (Wilco, Switchfoot), is both intimate and grandiose, at home equally in an echoing arena and in your own headphones.

The band’s inventive songwriting has earned accolades from the John Lennon Songwriting Contest (Grand Prize Winners) and the International Songwriting Contest (Winners), and it has been featured on MTV’s “The Hills” and “The Real World,” and ESPN’s “Baseball Tonight.” Q104.3′s Jonathan Clarke recently included The States in his list of the Top 10 New York bands.

Behind the music is an unconventional lineup: a Harvard-educated singer/guitarist (Chris Snyder), a punk/acid-jazz/prog-influenced drummer (Joe Stroll), and a sonic experimentalist bassist armed with an arsenal of fuzz pedals (Pete Connors).

REVIEW: Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, Chemic & You're My Density @ Skull Alley – 6/27

Monday, June 29th, 2009

Saturday’s show at Skull Alley was an amazing time.  As part of our goal in bringing incredible talent to Louisville, Backseat Sandbar brought you a lineup blending national act, Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, established Louisville band, Chemic, and the new but extremely promising You’re My Density.  You’re My Density was playing its first show and a played to a packed room of eager fans.  While there may have been some nerves before the show, they absolutely rocked it.  You would have had no idea it was their first show.  The sound was tight and the crowd definitely got behind them.  I love thier CD, but their live show was equally, if not more, impressive.  While the cd demo consisted only of one member, the full band has since joined to create for a much more complete sound.  You will start seeing more and more of these guys around town, so I strongly encourage you to check them out.  YMD’s next show is a Forecastle After-Party at Derby City Espresso on July 10th with The Pass.  It’s $5 bucks and starts at 10pm.  Don’t miss it.

Chemic went on second and put on the best show I’ve seen them play.  There is a lot to say about growing as a band the more you play and Chemic is a perfect example.  They just got back from an extensive midwest tour and fine tuned their performance.  It was energized and almost impossible to stand still to.  The crowd started off with the standard head bob, but progressed down to their feet and incited dancing.  They are peaking at just the right time as they will be playing at the Forecastle Fest and the MidPoint Music Fest in Cincy.

The man of the hour(s), Owen Ashworth a/k/a Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, took stage last and gave the crowd exactly what they wanted.  He played a lot from his new album Vs. Children as well as a few from another recent single/unreleased collection, Advanced Base Battery Life, including my favorite “White Corolla.”  Owen in not only talented, but a truly great guy.  He was constantly interacting with the crowd as he does, and in the past he has even taken requests via email before a show.  He took a few requests at the show and he even brought a big fan of his on stage toward the end of his set and let her sing a song with him. It was one of the earlier shows on his extensive international tour, but he let us all know that this was “the best show of the tour.”   He stuck around after and signed some autographs.  I picked up Advanced Base Battery Life and got it signed!  It’s spinning right now.

Thanks to everyone who came out and to everyone who helped with the show.  We’ll do it again soon!

It's on Tonight! Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, Chemic, & You're My Density @ Skull Alley!

Saturday, June 27th, 2009

We know you’ve been waiting all week for this one.  Tonight, 8pm, Skull Alley, it goes down.  ackseat Sandbar is pleased to present Casiotone for the Painfully Alone with Louisville’s Chemic and You’re My Density for a scant $5.

We know the economy’s tough and your softball team hasn’t been playing great, and, well let’s face it, the cat just ain’t eatin’ as much as you’re used to.  So you might as well celebrate the return to Louisville of CFTPA along with two great local acts.  Don’t forget your relatives and we’ll see you there.

Casiotone for the Painfully Alone w/ Chemic and You're My Density @ Skull Alley – 6/27

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

<

We don’t put on a ton of shows, but we could not pass us the opportunity to bring these three bands together for one amazing Saturday night line-up.  Backseat Sandbar is pleased to present Casiotone for the Painfully Alone with Louisville’s Chemic and You’re My Density at  Skull Alley on Saturday, June 27th.  Each act is going to bring a separate and unique brand of entertainment to the stage for what will be sure to be an all-out party.  Tickets are just $5 bucks, so we want Skull Alley to be packed.  Skull Alley’s bar is open, so be sure to enjoy a cold brew with the tunes.  Doors are at 7:00 with the first band going on promptly at 8:00pm.

We brought Casiotone to town last Halloween with No Kids and Pomegranates for what Leo Magazine called “one of 2008’s better indie lineups.”  Since Owen was last in Louisville, he has been incredibly busy, having put together a “songs from the road” style album of b-sides and rarities called “Advance Base Battery Life” (review) featuring Nick from No Kids on a few of those tracks as well as a full length LP “Vs. Children” (review) which focuses less on the lo-fi keys of earlier work and instead moving towards live instrumentation.

CFTPA- Optimist vs. The Silent Alarm [audio=http://www.teamclermont.com/mp3/cftpa_optimist.mp3]

You’re My Density is a very new synth-pop band from Louisville, who you can tell take inspiration from Casiotone, except that they trade Owen’s lofi for a little more hifi sound.  They sent us their CD in the mail and after a single listen, we knew we wanted them on this bill!  We see great things for this band, as they are highly talented, have a great sound that can appeal to a wide array of audiences, and have a unique personality that is characterized by the green underwear on their album art [we have no clue what the meaning is, but appreciate the bold call].


Chemic is also a Louisville based band that is coming into its own.  The just finished an exhaustive mid-west tour, they are set to play at this year’s Forecastle Festival and Mid-Point Music Festival and they were recently featured on My Old Kentucky Blog’s Launtromatinee (See video below).  A great addition to this bill, we will get to see them in the up-close and personal environment of Skull Alley.
