Aaron Hawken Reviews Little Heaven Big Sky at Loud-Stuff

Houston, Texas is the setting. A female fronted, five piece band is the lure and an album consisting of elegance and promise is the prize. The band has been compared as a mash up of Frank Black, PJ Harvey and Queens Of The Stone Age. Quite a nice cocktail of artists don’t you think?=

After checking out their tracks it would be pointless to sum up all twelve individually. There would be far too much to say with only a limited space to say it all. Going through the list song by song it was evident that there’s a plan of action going on here and nothing is going to stand in their way.

Jason Smith Interviews Jealous Creatures

Musician to Musician: Jealous Creatures

Jealous Creatures consists of singer/rhythm guitarist Sarah Hirsch, lead guitarist Ian HlavacekLisa Gallo Roth on bass, and Josh Barry on drums.

Over the last year or so, they have amassed favorable comparisons to Aimee Mann, PJ Harvey, The Pretenders, and now, from me — The Pains of Being Pure at Heart and The Dum Dum Girls with a slight country twang.  They will be part of the big Chris Gray Benefit Concert on January 14, so if you’ve been meaning to catch them, that will be the perfect time to introduce yourself to their brand of rock and roll.
