Dreamed up as a way for 3 friends to hang out, flesh out some ideas that might not work in their other projects, and hang out some more, Kudrow is what happens when you realize that writing your own music is sometimes easier than being in a Replacements cover band...

One of the first times I heard this band was when we played together in Charleston, SC on Election Day. Since then they have played some crazy shows, opening for Dinosaur Jr, and their recent tour with Jack White's new band Dead Weather.

Coming over from Manchester, TAM has been in the city for the last...

The band features members of Shinobu, Pteradon and Classics of Love.

Oneonta's The Knockdown recently lost their singer to warmer climates. Without missing a step, the rest of the band jumped right back in and formed Timeshares. I have no idea who is singing on this, Jay? It's usually the first name on the myspace.
It instantly reminds me of Pennsylvania's Digger and
Yo Man Go. This 3 song...
