UNCLE SKUNKLE returns to ATHENS

Mothers hide yer children! Middle-Tennessee Hell raisers are floating into Athens this Saturday. You all know them from their SCORCHING singles “Dazy” and “Ramblin Man” that made the cut of this year’s compilation vinyl, Gypnosis – and WHOO could forget last year’s appearance at The Hangar, followed by the house party set where things got even sweatier (If you can believe it!),  We’ve watched these men for years now and WE KNOW you’ll want to watch them too!

ELF POWER at GF

ELF POWER has set up camp in the GF Studio and commenced to colorfully churning OWT all kinds of goodness.  Thank YEW Laura for the tea basket.  I remember seeing the band back in 2008 at the Georgia Theatre (Pre-Burn) and fell in love-and onto the floor soon after.   Here they are doing “Jane” from 1999’s “A Dream In Sound” (OTR) and was produced by  Dave Fridmann (The Flaming Lips).  STAY TOONED

OLD SMOKEY in the STUDIO

OLD SMOKEY found themselves in our studio recently. Rolling in from Athens GA, This band OOZES colorful melodies and drives their Psych-Folk sound with dark rhythms that is bound to tickle yer toes.  They arrived by way of one car overheating and pushing through 105+ degree weather;  Settling into the GF studio – Jim, John, Jacob, Jason and Rob – have created something that we feel falls along the lines of a lost cut, snapped from the Original Wicker Man Soundtrack with the attitude of Lou Reed and the VU. If we may BE SO BOLD.

Here we have a single from their session. A FANTASTIC TUEWNE entitled “LAZY EYE”
