Gun Street Ghost
Gun Street Ghost
"If you were to put together a short list of the most interesting indie-rock bands from Denver in the past ten years, it would probably include at least one of the groups featuring either Mike Perfetti or Tyler Campo. Anyone paying attention over the years probably heard of or saw Raleigh, Johnny Knows Karate, Ideal Fathers, Cowboy Curse or Port Au Prince. But Gun Street Ghost (due at the hi-dive on Friday, August 17) isn't exactly resting on its members' laurels. Instead, the five-piece — which besides Perfetti and Campo includes Le Divorce alum Kim Baxter on drums, Tiffany Meese of the Centennial on keys and Daniel White of Bellowers on guitar — fills out spare melodies in a countrified mode. Perfetti's knack for clever turns of phrase and the collective's skill in matching mood to dynamics combine to make Gun Street songs shine. The band's debut EP, One Home, which is being released at this show, is simultaneously wry and earnest" By Tom Murphy Westword, Thursday, Aug 16 2012

I also have some killer songs about sandwiches! Elin Palmer writes, performs and records music with various artists, and also for herself in her band of intense accordion/Nyckelharpa magic. She plays mostly Violin and Nyckelharpa but has been called a "multi instrumentalist". She was born in Värmland Sweden and her music roots stem back to the folk music of Sweden! Her sound often speaks to the whimsical and beautiful nature of everyday life. She has worked with many outstanding artists including 16 Horsepower, The Czars, Wovenhand, and the The Fray. She was a core member and string arranger for Munly in their former group Munly and The Lee Lewis Harlots. She has created music for commercials with videographer and cyclist Kelly Magelky of Filament Productions. She plays with Eric Bachmann of Crooked Fingers, Archers of Loaf, as well as performs compositions by Tom Hagerman. Elin recently toured and played strings for Devotchka! And she played Nyckelharpa on a song with amazing and lovely Basia Bulat and recorded strings for M. Ward on this tour! She is always looking for cool new projects to work on:)
