Wednesday August 3 2016 8:30PM doors -- music at 9:00PM ••• 21 AND OVER $10 Emily Wolfe www.emilywolfemusic.com/ rock, alternative Dirty Denim www.facebook.com/dirtydenim/ rock garage The Total Bettys thetotalbettys.bandcamp.com/ pop punk Emily Wolfe Emily Wolfe -from Austin, TX -Emily Wolfe transcends the ranks of ordinary musicians. Real’ seems to be a theme that radiates through Wolfe’s personality and music, which is a rarity in an industry that breeds more celebrities than actual musicians. She partially attributes this to the cornucopia of classic rock and Motown hits she grew up listening to with her parents. “I think older music just seemed really real back then,” Wolfe said. “The songs move people in a way that’s kind of transcendent, and that’s the kind of music I want to make.” When it comes to her album, however, real is somewhat of an understatement. With a track list of songs all drawn from Wolfe’s personal experiences, “Director’s Notes” is about as close to her personal diary as listeners can get. “There were times when I felt like I couldn’t direct my own life, or like someone else was doing it for me, so all of the songs are notes of things that were going on in my life at the time,”. Dirty Denim Katie Rose - Guitar/Vox, Laura Svec - Bass/Vox Raquel Reyes - Drums/Vox, Niki Kangas - Guitar/Keys/Vox -from San Francisco, CA -Combining obscure sixties garage with 50’s/60’s girl rock and garage punk, all girl trio Dirty Denim bring a refreshing bit of fan fetishism to the impetus of sleazy rock ‘n roll. After guitarist and lead singer Katie Rose (BOMP! Records baby of les Hell on Heels) migrated down to San Francisco from Portland, Oregon with bassist Laura Svec, they eventually joined with drummer Raquel Reyes (The Peppermints) to form Dirty Denim. They swiftly made their mark in the North Bay area gigging with local and touring bands at S.F. venues such as; Great American Music Hall, Rickshaw Stop and Bottom of the Hill. This year (2016) they added a fourth badass, Niki Kangas, who juggles keyboard, guitar and tambourine. Dirty Denim doubled down with explosive keys, catchy riffs and backup gang vocals that are impossible not to sing. Watching them go from 3 shy girls nervously giggling into microphones... to an all out WILDFIRE on stage has captivated me. Always obsessed to see what they'll do next and literally twitching to hear their FIRST FULL LENGTH RECORD (set to release this year)... I wait impatiently. Dirty Denim is now headlining local shows and supporting great bands like, The Coathangers, The Birth Defects, Shannon & the Clams and many others. These are four of the hardest working women in the industry, so catch these busy bees any time you can! They're impossible to tie down!!(well...figuratively) -Bob Cantu The Total Bettys Maggie, Bri, Anthony, Chris -from San Francisco, CA -The Total Bettys are a pop punk band from San Francisco. Maggie, Bri, Anthony and Chris started writing together in 2015, and they instantly became best buds.. Their debut EP Connect with the Couch features fun, upbeat pop punk energy with witty, self-deprecating lyrics. |
