Cocker Spaniels come to Ohio!!!
Firstly,
people in Ohio must pick a show and see a very, very talented dude play great rock music. (i'll be at Elbo's on sunday, the 20th)
he's from Tejas (formerly NYC) and his band the Cocker Spaniels are playing some very rare Ohio shows.
his music is fucking fantastic. very energetic, emotionally raw, totally original indie rock music. Guided by Voices' Rob Pollard loves the stuff, and he's by many accounts The Best Band You've Never Heard. someday [not] soon enough he will be Big Shit (we're talking Pavement/Modest Mouse/Bright Eyes/Death Cab for Cutie territory here), if he keeps making such vital, honest rock and roll.
i can't say enough about how startlingly good his CD, Withstand the Whatnot, is. you really, really ought to be good to your ears and pick up a copy while you're there.
you'll thank him at the show, and then come home, spent and exhausted, and thank me for telling you. BELIEVE ME.
