4WH had the opportunity to co-sponsor a little party in Athens last weekend with Slush Fund Recordings (See Slush Fund Presents Spencer for Mayor Day Party!) during AthFest 2010. Now, don’t get me wrong, Athens is ALWAYS fun! But I didn’t realize how much fun it could be to bring half of The A to Athens. Good friends = Good times. We mixed it up. Here are a few of my favorite day time photos of what I like to call our little family vacation. The cover photograph was shot by the lovely and talented Alice Kim. The rest were shot by our dear friend Mr. Zach Wolfe. Let’s just say, this is the softer side of Zach. Yeah yeah! Thanks, Zach!

“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
“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/
“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
