Grand Ole Party featured in RAGGED
Grand Ole Party is the little band that could these days. I do love to see them covered in national print - their latest interview is in the current issue of RAGGED. It’s good to see that the interview has quotes from all the band members - too often it is easy to focus on just Kristin.
As you may be able to tell by the cover, Kate Nash is also featured in this issue. I like that Filter and Ragged are not afraid to go a little pop with their choices of interviewees. There are also interviews with up and coming L.A. bands Gran Role and Monte Negro, plus a chat with Dustin Kensrue of Thrice and a cool look at the Switches Matt and Ollie’s favorite records.
So, are you wondering what all these bands sound like? (You are nodding your head yes.) Filter has hooked up a prize pack of cds from the featured artists. One lucky winner will get copies of Grand Ole Party’s Humanimals, Kate Nash’s Made of Bricks, Monte Negro’s Who Told You?, Gran Ronde’s Secret Rooms, Thrice’s The Alchemy Index Vols. III and IV, and the Switches’ Lay Down The Law plus the latest issue of RAGGED.
If you’re interested in the schwag, send me an email (contact info on the right) with your name, mailing address and why you should win. I’ll pick a winner on Thursday and let you know if you won on Friday.
