[ INFO. ]

[ MOOOLS ] <--- Japan!

Formed in 1997, moools have become known as one of the finest independent rock bands in Tokyo, Japan. Their unique combination of dynamic rhythm figures and diverse songwriting styles has found them a strong fan base. They have also attracted the attention of many of the musicians who have shared the bill with them. John Atkins (764 Hero / The Magic Magicians) has described them as sometimes sounding like “a blend of early Talking Heads and Meat Puppets.” Mt. Eerie/The Microphones has even covered their song “Koneko Calender,” which is featured on his live album. moools have a strong relationship with K Records and the Northwest independent music scene. They have played at Olympia’s Yo Yo a Go Go festival twice and even toured the West Coast with Mt. Eerie in the fall of 2003. In addition, moools have had the opportunity to play shows with Modest Mouse, Deerhoof, Calvin Johnson, The Microphones, The Folk Implosion, Love as Laughter, Mirah, The Magic Magicians, +/-, The Eternals and The Crabs when these bands toured Japan. They also toured Japan with Kyle Field’s Little Wings and Mt. Eerie. Besides performing their own set, they also played as the backing band for Little Wings and Mt. Eerie. They were additionally featured as the backing band on The Microphones’ Live in Japan 2003 album. Uchino’s sharp and dynamic drumming contributes one of the album’s highlights during the 10-minute epic “Universe Conclusion.”

[ INVINCIBLE HUMMINGBIRDS ]

Invincible Hummingbirds is the latest project of cellist/songwriter Brent Arnold, who is known for his playing with ex-indie bands like Modest Mouse and Sleater-Kinney. The music is a sort of experimental chamber-rock affair played by some amazing people including Jennifer Turner (of Joseph Arthur and the Lonely Astronauts), Michael Lerner (Ghosts I’ve Met), Mikey Freedom Hart (Young Equestrians) and Jean Cook (Beauty Pill). With all their cellos, violins, noises, drones, rock and soul they’ve been compared
to Blonde Redhead, David Bowie, Andrew Bird, and Animal Collective.

[ THE BOY BATHING ]

The Boy Bathing, named after one of Aesop’s Fables, stands for a youthful non-conformity opposed to a world where corruption, false-hope and boredom seem inevitable. Their music is like a flame that can warm, or, burn you when you sit near its glow even leaving you cold when you walk away. These dualities go further into the personality of songwriter David Hurwitz who has been called both smart and stupid in the same sentence and whose lyrics can make you laugh and cry in the same verse.
