Artist description Picture this. A night out on the town with a few good buddies. You wind up at a bar you've never been to, or maybe some friend's friend's basement. The lights are low, the smoke is thick, the girls are all wearing wonderfully tight clothes, and the music, pumping loudly, is a hybrid of old and new, somewhat familiar, but with a solid groove, serious jams, fun little effects, and wild instrumentation. Both kitschy yet musically adept, this is the soundtrack that almost always accompanies such a scene.
