Perkasie….
No, silly gooses, I’m not speaking of Perkasie, PA, but rather, I’m speaking of the magically enticing band from Lancaster, PA! I got the pleasure of seeing them a few months back at both the Blue Nile and Banks St. Bar, and let me tell you, they are delightful!!
Immediately after I saw them, I picked up their CD, entitled “Perkasie,” and it is everything I wanted to hear from start to finish. To truly understand this band, I feel you must see them live; however, their CD does them equal justice. Characterized by a frenetic cacophony of ear-pleasin’, foot-stompin’, old timey music, this wonderful group of characters can flat out play!
From Kate Foust’s sassy voice to Alex Wash’s snazzy piano playin’, this band is pure genius. Personally, I’ve been diggin’ on “Down by the Riverside.”
check em’ out! I have a creepin’ suspicious that this band will go places.
