Hollis Brown sind eine fünfköpfige Band, die einen harzigen Country-Sound und Amerika spielt: schrammelt über gottverlassene Ecken voller Trinker und Knastbrüder, so ähnlich wie der Bob-Dylan-Song “Ballad Of Hollis Brown” von 1964, in dem über einen verzweifelten in Armut lebenden Farmer gesungen wird, der seine Familie und dann sich selbst umbringt. Hollis Brown sind jung [...]

I decided to give a shout out to my favorite person from New Mexico, my dear friend Nathan Hollis, by promoting the new album from my favorite band from New Mexico.  Back in March, The Shins released what is probably my favorite album of the year so far with their 4th full-length album, Port Of [...]

We've got info on plenty of the latest to discuss! 90s rockers Our Lady Peace return with a new album, Guided by Voices frontman Robert Pollard puts out a solo record, and quiet indie faves Au return with a new one. However, if we've got to pick a favorite (as we often do), it's Screaming Females ' Ugly (pictured). We also need to note the Deathbomb Arc label's ...

- Frequenze News - Fra le mail di stamattina ho trovato un modo per cominciare bene la settimana.  Hollis Brown  (band), cinque ragazzi statunitensi che, fra le altre cose, re-interpretano con la sporcizia necessaria (e l'aiuto di John McCauley dei Deer Tick) la  Spoonful  di Wille Dixon, conosciuta da noi europei forse più per la cover dei Cream che per l'originale. Una band "old school" con un certo gusto per il feeling live. Cliccate play, e se desiderate approfondire il discorso sulla band, ecco il link diretto alla pagina facebook.

Hollis Brown Album: Nothing & The Famous No One EP (Out 4/3) Label: Unsigned Hollis Brown – Spoonful (Featuring John McCauley)
