Band to check out: Bambara

Distortion,feedback and melodic noise are so cool, some of my favorite bands The Who and Sonic Youth took distortion, feedback and melodic noise to a whole new level. I was so happy to hear that the tradition of feedback, distortion and noise live on in Athens GA band Bambara. Bambara is hard rocking but beautiful and melodic at the same time!

Below is a clip of Bambara filmed at the 40 Watt Club in Georgia, the band is performing their song "Lullay".




If you click on the title link of this post it will take you to Bambara's myspace page where you can hear more music and get tour dates. And one of the tour dates that Bambara is playing this summer is the July Whatever blog party at the Glasslands in Brooklyn on 7/29. The Ego Puppets, Shark?, Rumanian Buck and Pretty Good Dance moves all play the July Whatever blog party.
