Cooling Towers @ T.T. The Bear’s Place 4.1.2012

Rumble Preliminary Night #1 closed out with the heavy groove of Cooling Towers. Eric Donohue and Pete Gamache are one killer rhythm section. Ronan Fahy knows when to attack his guitar and when to let it sing. Judy Margo’s backing vocals and synth parts are the icing on the cake – a cake that Commodore Vic slithers all over like some kind of rock n’ roll prophet with a sweet tooth.

Cooling Towers @ Radio 2.3.2012

Hot on the heels of their show at Great Scott, Cooling Towers were a last minute fill-in on a bill at Radio. I was already planing on going to this show, but having this crew on this bill certainly didn’t hurt. I dig their vibe.
