TK Webb & The Visions
Missouri born TK Webb has been on the scene for a few years now, and released his second LP, Phantom Parade, back in 2006. He is no stranger to the stage, and over the years he has found a unique way of combining rock sounds with dirty delta blues. Last summer, Webb decided that he needed a fuller sound on his next record and so he formed The Visions. Consisting of Brian Hale (ex-Love As Laughter) on 2nd guitar, Nic Gonzales (The Comas, Love As Laughter, Blood on the Wall) on drums, and Jordan Gable on bass, they begin a full on rock assault on their new release Ancestor (Kemado Records, Sept. 2nd). They band clearly has gelled quickly, and they will be put to the test on a lengthy cross-country tour in September. Here is what TK had to say about the decision to bring a band together. "It felt like gravity pulling the sound towards being bigger. From solo acoustic to a trio to a four- piece electric group. I found myself surrounded by bland half-baked folk acts and wanted out. This project feels right. It feels like a band should."
A solid rock album is pretty much what we have come to expect from the New York label Kemado. Since its inception back in 2002 they have released an incredible catalog of intense and obscure rock albums, including releases from Turzi, Witch, Dungen, Langhorne Slim, The Sword, and others. TK Webb's Ancestor fits perfectly in the Kemado catalog.
