2019 8:30PM doors -- music at 9:00PM ••• 21 AND OVER $12 Tiger! Tiger! (featuring Buffi of The Subsonics) www.facebook.com/tigertigeratl/ Garage Rock The Outta Sorts www.facebook.com/theouttasorts/ Garage. Yeah, Garage The IFIC www.facebook.com/The-IFIC-567310420329905/ Power-Pop DJ Sid Presley www.facebook.com/DjSidPresley/ DJ Tiger! Tiger! Buffi Aguero- Vocals, Guitar Shane Pringle- Guitar, Sax, Vocals Susanne Gibboney- Bass, Vocals Sam Leyja- Organ Mario Colangelo- Drums, Vocals -from Atlanta, GA -"With a refreshing dollop of confident restraint, Tiger! Tiger! hurls a cohesive sonic menace that equals Aguero's tough-girl image (one that looks as if this chica could cut ya just as easily as flash ya that infectious ruby-red smile)." - Flagpole Magazine "…It's what you might call "bar music," if more bars actually cut loose enough to play stuff like this. But there's just enough danger here to ensure that they won't." - Atlanta Journal & Constitution Since 2005 Tiger! Tiger! has become an important figure in Atlanta's underground music scene, working at the cross roads of garage rock, punk and R&B. The group's second full-length, The Kind of Goodnight is a catty and cool collection of retro rock and roll rhythms that dive headlong into the dark side of the tensions that bind and repel the sexes. The album is by turns sultry and frenetic, obsessive and triumphant as vocalist, guitarist and principal songwriter Buffi Aguero cruelly croons away, kicking at the rubble of love in the ruins. Sam Leyja (organ), Susanne Gibboney (bass, vocals), Mario Colangelo (drums) and Shane Pringle (guitar, saxophone, vocals) craft a gritty and careening big beat that wanders into the most menacing parts of the ego and the soul. This is the battle cry of strength, reckoning and psychological vengeance that kicks like a Stiletto to the guts. Each song tells a tale of hurt feelings, deceit and rising above with extreme prejudice. Opening number, "Stand In" is a Velvet Underground inspired ditty that serves as a primer into the simple, powerful plod of the group's pace. And yes, "Garage rock" is the inexorable catch phrase of Tiger! Tiger!'s approach. It is a dominate strain in the group's genetic make-up, which makes sense. Aguero also plays drums for Atlanta's long-standing garage rock legends the Subsonics (who will be featured on a split 7-inch with the Black Lips later this year on Rob's House Records). Songs like "Black Daggers" and "Cheap Imitation" are not only cut from the same cloth as younger ATL siblings the Black Lips, the Carbonas and the Coathangers, the group contains fragments of the same cornerstones upon which new Atlanta is built. Tiger! Tiger! draws power from real life experience, and even though there are more than three chords bounding throughout each song, the impact of it all remains in a direct and uncomplicated channeling of very complicated emotions. Dueling frontwomen Gibboney and Aguero bring the pressure to a fine point - the wrath of not one, but two women scorned has never been so enticing. Goodnight is an exercise in catharsis and sheer triumph of will, but it is so sculpted from so much more than spun-out punk aggression. Pringle's restrained saxophone blasts in "Cheap Imitation" reveal hidden layers in the music that summon an affinity for the artful bend of '70 post-punk and '80s new wave, but it all comes back together in Leyja's long, sustained organ drones and staccato rhythms. "How Much Can You Take" and "Seaside Romance" sidestep the explosive connotations of such punchy and ragged descriptors to follow the course of a slow burn that is no less volatile, and The Kind of Goodnight is white hot. The Outta Sorts Aruny Love - drums Johnny Love - guitar, vocals Scotty Love - bass, vocals -from San Francisco, CA -The Outta Sorts are a San Francisco based Rockabilly-Mod trio who are celebrating the release of their third vinyl EP, this time released on the Jester label. The IFIC -from Petaluma, CA - From Petaluma, The IFIC play catchy, fuzzy, three chord Power-Pop songs about love gained, love lost, and the occasional bad day. With members of The Hampton Wicks, Kingdom First, and Bomboras. DJ Sid Presley David Greenfield -from Pacifica, CA -David Greenfield, aka DJ SID PRESLEY, spins the music of the late 1950's through the 1960's, including British Invasion beat, surf and exotica instrumentals, groovy mod pop, greasy rhythm and blues, raw garage rockers, and much, much more. An evening with DJ Sid guarantees sounds geared to dancing, drinking and excitement. His carefully-curated sets are packed full of both ear-opening rarities and crowd-pleasing ravers. And it’s all vinyl, all the time! |
