61: Swallows are Em Brownlowe and Jon Miller. They formed in the Summer of 2004
when they converged in Portland. Originally playing under the moniker of Dirty
Shirley, they changed their name to Swallows and began writing new music. The
duo use unexpected methods, non-traditional techniques and a queer aesthetic to
form their songs : We also listen to
Kusikia
from Tacoma, WA. Nsayi Matingou infuses raw,
complex, unconventional, bluesy guitar lines with impassioned, whisper-core
vocals while Peter Ryan juxtaposes open rhythmic back-space with boom-crashes to
accent transitions between Kusikia's usual dreamy flow and their harsher, more
aggressive moments :who: The Swallows, art-rock duo from Portland and Kusikia from Tacoma : when: May 16, 2007, 8:00 PM : where: Sacred Grounds, 686 F St, Arcata CA : cost: donation : Description: links: geocities.com/theswallowspdx : myspace.com/theswallows : cdbaby.com/cd/swallowspdx : myspace.com/kusikia : myspace.com/sacredgroundscoffee Intro by Tony Steidler Dennison at the The Roadhouse podcast : Bands can submit music to humcitypodcast@gmail.com : visit us at humcity.libsyn.com : Comments[0] |
