Sere Cahoone has been in the rock world for a while now. She's been in the bands Carrisa's Wierd and then drummed for Band of Horses on
Everything All The Time. Her Sub Pop debut,
Only As The Day is Long is coming out on March 18.
The title track from her album is a nice alt-country, country tinged number featuring banjo and harmonica. It reminds me, a little bit, of late 70's early 80's country. At first listen the hook reminded me of "Why Lady Why?" by Alabama. But, upon further listens it reminds me of someone and I can't put my finger on it. Maybe that's why I like this song so much, it's familiar but not a carbon copy of someone else's work.
Sera Cahoone - Only As The Day Is Long (mp3)
The Seatlle Sub Pop-pers will be playing and early show, 630p, at The Cavern this Sunday. Denton's Sara Jaffe will be the first act, followed by the lovely Sera Cahoone. It should be a good one, their debut album is awesome.
I have finally been able to listen to the new Grand Archives album and I’m way beyond impressed. The opening track “Torn Blue Foam Couch” is phenomenal. I know Mat Brooks was in Band of Horses for a short time, but, they really don’t really sound exactly like BoH, more of they have similarities. Brooks and Ben Bridwell, of BoH, have vocal similarities. But, I think Brooks has the better pipes of the two. And they aren’t completely drenched in reverb.
