In my HFStival review last year, I made a comment about running down hometown hero Jimi Haha for a little chat.

With The Shack Scheduled to play their first headlining show in Baltimore in two years, what better time than now? Initially we were going to do the sit-down as planned, then Shockwave Mag and I discussed me doing a review for them… And RJ from Shockwave will be doing a video interview. I’ll be feeding him some questions for Jimi, and we’ll be posting the vid here, and on Shockwave along with my review.

After two years with no Shack in Baltimore, perhaps we’ll talk politics, art, sports, local business and, of course, music. And with Lower Class Citizens and Niki Barr band kickin this show off, its pretty much all the Baltimore rock you can cram into a Saturday night. All three are well-worth seeing live on their own. With all three on the bill it will definitely be worth the the trip out and the $15 cover ($12 in advance).

New Lightfoot EP “Scarlet Sails” dropping on January 24th

This is awesome –Lightfoot will officially release Scarlet Sails (independent), with 3 brand new songs, and three originals that the band has previously recorded, on January 24th. I just gave the EP my first listen, and the tracks flow nicely, brimming with warmth, epic fuzz-laden, distorted guitar riffs, with the bonus of effortlessly balanced horns on some songs — and always in the right places.

Their music has been described as being characteristic of pop, but I prefer rock, blues, surf rock and folk before laying the pop tag on them. However you want to slice it, Lightfoot creates music that easily flows to the soul. Draw your own conclusion, but love Lightfoot all the same. Check out the deets on their album release party, that will be one fun night.
