“Simply stated, The Judies create pop music the way that pop music should be with catchy melodies, memorable hooks and traces of the garage rock you lived for in the ’90s. Once experiencing a live performance you won’t be able to shake front man Warren Ullom. He leaves an indelible impression as he pours every ounce of himself into each performance.” -Kelley Hagen, Metromix Atlanta

J. Roddy Walston and The Business

“The band self-released their debut, Hail Mega Boys, in 2007 which prompted critics to say that J-Roddy Walston and The Business is “the purest American rock-and-roll band I’ve heard in years,” (Flagpole) and sounds like “a butcher version of Queen and Ben Folds with a full backing band and a fistful of Lexapro” (WCPR). The quintet’s live show is an experience likened to “a live bull fight,” (Philly Style) and “infectiously manic…they make James Brown look lazy,” (Baltimore City Paper).” – http://vagrant.com/

The Booze

“Rebirth of the Cool is a great return to ’60s rock form for the Booze that sharpens the group’s aesthetics. “No Big Thing,” “There Goes My Girl,” which features a duet with Ashley Salisbury from the Stolen Hearts, and “Railway 188″ are soulful pop peaks in an album steeped in harmonica, slide guitars and the blues.” -Chad Radford, Creative Loafing

Saturday, November 14th we join forces with Slush Fund Recordings and Underrated Records to take over The 529 Club where the whiskey flows in East Atlanta Village. This will no doubt be a night of rowdy fun with The Biters (formerly Poison Arrows)/ Geri X / Part Bear. A word of advice, if you see Tuk hold on to your shoes. This is Geri X’s first Atlanta show and I am so very pleased to present it. Check out her work at www.gerixmusic.com. Word is she is relocating to The A, so let’s give her a great welcoming show. Part Bear out of Athens is first on stage, so get there early!
