Those Darlins

Those Darlins are a garage country band from Murfreesboro, TN. The ladies went live in 2006 and attracted immediate attention for their rowdy, cheerfully sarcastic, and sometimes boozed-fueled show, and for their unique interplay of distinct personalities. While considered to be the next big thing associated to Nashville’s rock scene, Those Darlins’ curious mix of classic country punk and ragged garage rock makes them one of a kind, eliciting comparisons like, “The Carter Family meets The Black Lips.” In 2009, the girls toured feverishly, playing 140 shows and sharing the stage with the likes of Dan Auerbach (of The Black Keys), Deer Tick, King Khan & BBQ Show, Wanda Jackson, Jon Spencer, and Man Man. They made huge waves at SXSW, Bonnaroo, and Garage Fest. This fall, they will be putting out a 7” and digital single to preview the raucous sounds that will be on their next record.
The Strange Boys

If everything old is new again, the Strange Boys are way ahead of the curve. Beneath the clamor of Ryan Sambol's fierce nasality and herky-jerky riffs, urged on by brother Philip's bass and drummer Matt Hammer's powerhouse thump, plus the newly added grease of Greg Enlow's organ, the Dallas fourpiece plows a wormhole through time immemorial.

Gentleman Jesse & His Men
myspace
Gentleman Jesse & His Men are another fresh slice of inspired, lo-fi, garage pop brilliance on par with the sounds of The Beat, The Exploding Hearts, The Barracudas, The Speedies, The Donkeys , and Jack Lee’s The Nerves. Jesse and Dave from the the Carbonas have assembled a squad of tightly configured personnel who can channel the free spirit of the Carter administration and infuse it with a snappy and indulgent Case/Collins framework of rock’n roll ecstasy, and the results are thoroughly pleasing on all levels. Punchy, harmonic, and full of hooks that sink deep and don’t require a warm-up, the Gentleman Jesse And His Men self-titled debut album is clearly a great sign of even more essential music from the deep south that you really shouldn’t live without.
