When I first saw the name of this band pop up I assumed it was an electronic project, given that they were playing the same bill on a night where Jesse Cale announced an impromptu electronic set at Carabar. Not so! But – they are still good. You didn’t think Tuned Up would chat about any old local, would you? Well, in case you didn’t know, this trio features Andre Vanderpool from Sleep Fleet, Joe Camerlego from Van Dale, and Jeremy Skeen of Mary Lynn’s backing band (also playing WKSF VI). Their online debut was deemed worthy of a feature on the esteemed Stereogum, so you know its good. Here’s Andre with this go-around of our WKSF Q&A:
