Stace made a few phone calls, those friends made a few calls and boosh, an audience. They were privy to a bit of history. Weedghost play two songs? Last…

Cleveland’s Sun God have in the past described themselves as “arena punk… in a good way” and I completely agree.

COUNTY FAIR PREVIEW: Dead Winds of Summer
Dead Winds of Summer is the solo project from Andrew Lampela (Weedghost, Kid Panda Hands, Goodbye Goats, SacLunch, Wizzard Beasts, and 9 million more). Dead Winds is equal parts improv, loops, and atmosphere and just like Andrew’s other projects in those veins this one hits the mark right on. This is the perfect way to…

COUNTY FAIR PREVIEW: She Bears
Aquabear gave She Bears some love (it’s a bear thing) a while back when they put out their last record. This interview is funnier than anything that I could write right now, so we will just link to that. She Bears are from Athens, Ohio though I hear talk they will be leaving for the…

COUNTY FAIR PREVIEW: We March
Oh man, I cannot in any way at all think about my life without We March. When I came to Athens as an Ohio University freshman in 2001, We March was one of the first bands I saw down here and it made me feel instantly at home. These guys are the real deal. And…
