Bee Vs. Moth
WWSP played a set last night at the Red Line Tap. A funky neighborhood bar on Glenwood. We had a great time, the sound was good. We were without our drummer (he had been called to London at the last minute), so it was just guitar, bass and vocals.
We kind of felt a little naked, no hiding, but overall a pretty good showing. We were on the bill with a cool band from Austin, Texas called Bee vs. Moth.
What a unique, quirky collective. Think Ornette Coleman and Charles Mingus, with a little Art Ensemble of Chicago, crossed with the Tijuana Brass and maybe Sonic Youth. No vocals. The horn players actually read charts. Sarah, the drummer, acts like the conductor - even if no one is watching her (except the audience). She and Philip, the bass player compose the majority of the music.
They were funny, thrilling, noisy, impressive. Totally unique. What a rare treat.
