Wieuca (album release)
A phoenix rising from the ashes of the Dirty South, Atlanta’s prodigal sons Wieuca will be reuniting at 529 after a tumultuous breakup and months of costly legal disputes between members. Ironically, the purpose of Wieuca’s reunion show is for the individual members to make enough money to continue litigating each other over a copyright contention that spurred the initial breakup. Will they coalesce onstage with an effortless grace (which could perhaps lead to an eventual out of court settlement), or will tensions boil over and erupt into all-out indie rocker warfare? Come and find out! –John Foy & Associates [The Strong Arm]
The Sporrs
Zoe Bayani
“The latest release from Zoe Bayani is a beautifully woven and personal EP that feels like maybe the most relatable set of songs you’ve heard in some time with graceful performances vocally and musically as horns ride out, pisno’s bop along and the songwriting touches on vintage styles. The best thing about this record is that you learn to expect the unexpected after a few songs. They all have such a klush feel and so much diversity between each other that it’s absolutely enticing. The songs float and bounce with a wondrous brightness and this allure that makes you want more each time. They have such great melodies, hooks, choruses and verses all draped in a vivid palette of sound and textures that compliment each other and are performed with this at ease undertone. It’s all impactful, dreamy, poppy, and gorgeous. You float your way through this EP which, by the way, feels much bigger as it’s laced with tasteful piano licks, and swaying guitar sections underneath harmonizing vocals that sooth and tell stories. You get all sorts of genres that peek their heads out here and there and her charm works perfectly no matter which it is every time. Those melodies are the kind that make the hair on your arms stand up and by the end you question whether or not you’ve fallen for her all together. This was a genuine and character riddled record that fulfilled me completely.” -The Sounds Won’t Stop
Dinner Time
Artist Name: Dinner Time
Who Are They: An indie pop “supergroup,” if you will, that formed from the ashes of Ian Buford’s old band, the Pellys. As drummer Chad Miller (Antarcticats) told me, Dinner Time probably could’ve assembled before now, as three of the members—Miller, Buford, and Pop Weirdos auteur Bennett Kane—have been shuffling between each other’s bands for years now.
Members
Alejandro Uribe – Lead guitar
Ian Buford – Rhythm guitar, lead vocals
Bennett Kane – Bass, backing vocals
Chad Miller – Drums
Sounds Like: Start with Antarcticats, and that semi-tropical hammock rock, especially at high tide when the waves pound harder. Now imagine the band on the beach, but fully dressed in pressed button-downs and bowler haircuts. And then you realize, as the camera slowly zooms out, that you’re not really on a beach at all, but in a stylized model with plastic palm trees and bleach-white sand. Somewhere on the other side, Phil Spector is watching from his director’s chair; he approves, mostly, but wants to add some clever choreography and timpanis. No one’s got the time or money for either, so we’ve settled for the next best compromise: some twinkly chimes off-screen. Brilliant!
Releases: As of now, Dinner Time has only granted the internet “Walden Park,” but they promise to serve a second single by early August.
Mandatory Listening: Well, “Walden Park,” duh. See ‘Sounds Like’ above for details. However, if we fold in the members’ other projects, then I’d say Antarcticats’ latest long player I Know You Are, But What Am I? points most to what Dinner Time sound like now. See “Back By Midnight” for a scarily close analog of the same doo-wop swing, and “You’ve Got Something” for the hopscotch skip.
