    Thick Shakes – “Polyommatus Blues” (2013)

    “Polyommatus Blues”
    2013

    Thick Shakes are out on a short tour right now, but before they left they shimmied out a new single. “Polyommatus Blues” can’t decide if it should smolder with restraint or cut loose like it’s got sparklers in its pants. It does both. Throw a quick organ solo in the middle and you’ve got another in a long line of classic Thick Shakes over-modulated garage rock nuggets. Snag it while they’re on the road and get it name-your-price style.

    Oh, and they’re shooting a video for this tune? Daykamp Music TV just got twitchy…

    Where to get it:

    What Time Is It, Mr. Fox? @ Waltham Common 5.11.2013

    The Watch City Festival descended upon Waltham last weekend. I took Big Little One down to the Waltham Common to check out some of the music. We caught What Time Is It, Mr. Fox? and strolled around for a bit. Hooray for free, open-air music events!

            Richard Bouchard is picking the Video of the Day all week on Daykamp Music TV!

            In an effort to make Daykamp Music TV as inclusive as possible, we had the idea to occasionally let other people pick the Video of the Day. This starts right now! To kick things off we turn the reigns over to Richard Bouchard for the entire week. That’s right! The Indie Rock Ranger himself will be choosing the Video of the Day through Friday. Have we made a huge mistake? Possibly. His first pick is “The Land Of Hopes & Dreams” by Mean Creek, though. Maybe this will work out after all.

            Watch Daykamp Music TV

            Would you let this man pick the Video of the Day? Wait. Don't answer that. iPhone pic by Nicole Anguish.

            The Shills @ Great Scott 5.4.2013

            I had only seen The Shills a couple of times before seeing them open for Spacehog. My band squared off against them in the 2008 Rock ‘N’ Roll Rumble prelims. Neither of us advanced. I saw them again a couple of years later at a Rock n Romp event. The kids and I enjoyed them. It had been 3 years since our paths last crossed. You’ll forgive me if I wasn’t prepared for what I saw at Great Scott. These guys are playing in a whole new league now. The Shills are impressive.
