Band We Like
Punker Jay Reatard gets his garage on.
March 25, 2008
Memphis' Jay Reatard (former teenage founder of The Reatards and current member of Lost Sounds) opens for The Black Keys at The Glass House on Sunday, March 30th!
Jay plays furiously fun lo-fi no-wave punk (with a dash of rockabilly and garage thrown in, too). Phew! A whole mess of different past musical genres are covered when this guy takes the stage. But Reatard's sampling of these varied sounds really only leads to one singular goal; to make music you can thrash and dance to.
He plays and sings his short songs in a hurry, and it takes the savvy dancer/thrasher to keep up with his time signatures. Call it breathless-core. Jay Reatard will sure appeal to fans of The Ponys, Wire, Black Lips and Brian Eno.
