A Perfect Double Bill - Deadstring Brothers/Matt Mays & El Torpedo
Leave it to Schubas to put on the best rock show of the weekend...on Monday night! On Monday the 30th Matt Mays & El Torpedo from Canada and The Deadstring Brothers from Detroit will bring their brand of feel good rock to Chicago. I'm most psyched about seeing the Deadstring Brothers again. They mix both the garage and the Motown sounds that Detroit is known for and add to that big Rolling Stone guitar riffs and swirling hammond organ chords. I thought that the song "Sacred Heart" off their Bloodshot Records' debut, Starving Winter Report, was one of the catchiest from all of 2006.
I'm not as up on Matt Mays & El Torpedo as I should be (since I'm kinda nuts for Canadians). But check out the downloadable video below to get a feel for them.
