Detroit based Johnny Headband are brothers Chad and Keith Thompson (bassist with Electric Six) with RGS filling in the drumming duties. The trio have just this week released their excellent new LP, Who Cooks For You.
The album was self recorded with Chad at the controls calling on his expertise as an audio engineer and producer—and the boys have managed to pull of a really cool off-kilter album that really defies easy categorisation.
The 9 tracks on the album skirt successfully across multiple genres: from electronica and disco through to fuzzy-pop and Shoegaze. On the surface, something this indefinable could fail, but the songwriting is excellent and the album swirls and threads perfectly from track to track.
Johnny Headband will be in the UK promoting the album with a 16 date tour, starting on May 18th in London and ending on June 3rd in Hastings.
