SILVER SCROLLS
Bandcamp | Instagram
Epic Polvo offshoot featuring singer-guitarist Dave Brylawski with multi-instrumentalist Brian Quast.
PIPE
Youtube | Bandcamp
“It might give the wrong impression to call them indie rock, though they are indie, and they do rock. They play loud, swinging, sneakily catchy songs that sound like they hurt to sing, the riffs stewed in ‘70s garage and pre-hardcore punk.” – Indy Week, Brian Howe. Pipe is Ron Liberti of Cold Cream, with Mike Kenlan on guitar, David Alworth on bass, and Chuck Garrison on drums.
FULL SIZE
Bandcamp | Instagram
Full Size is sometimes dark, sometimes driving, experimental stuff featuring Bill Nace of Body/Head.
POWERS/ROLIN DUO
Bandcamp
Jen Powers and Matthew J. Rolin. “In recent years, again and again, Powers/Rolin does it right & natural, and somehow I always think of sunlight and ’sunlight’ simultaneously when I listen to their recorded work.” – Will Oldham
OBJECT HOURS
Bandcamp | Instagram
Object Hours is Nora Rogers (Solar Halos), Jenny Waters (Work Clothes) and Harrison Haynes (Les Savy Fav). We try to keep songs under 25 minutes for your sake.
