Their live performances are even better. also on the bill is the progressive indie rock band Facing New York, who performed at SXSW in 2007.

Posted about 1 month ago.Rx Bandits’ scratchy funk-ska hybrid would probably have resulted in a major-label contract back in the heyday of kindred spirits such as Fishbone, but the Bandits appear to be doing just fine as independent contractors on 2006’s self-released …And The Battle Begun. Breaking out of nth-generation emo outfit Anatomy Of A Ghost, singer-guitarist John Baldwin Gourley and bassist Zachary Carothers started scratching an itch for classic pop and rock that blossomed into the harder-to-classify Portugal. The Man. Last year the group delivered its sophomore full-length, Church Mouth, a warm, colorful, even funky record full of organic prog-pop. Opener Facing New York hails from Berkeley and hews heaving, rhythm-shifting prog-rock from inspirations as disparate as Led Zeppelin, The Dismemberment Plan, and Fela Kuti.
