Title: Discover new bands
Post by: Bags on December 08, 2003, 10:07:00 am
From the NY times:
 
 "THE FOLD" (Credit Records). Most small and infamous rock clubs in major cities present the same touring bands. The only identity they tend to have is in the local bands they discover before the acts graduate to college radio and major labels. Thus, the boon of this compilation of alternative-rockers who have performed at the well-booked Fold at the Silverlake Lounge in Los Angeles is not in its songs by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Patrick Park and Polyphonic Spree. It's in allowing the rest of the country to discover quality unsigned SoCal acts like Midnight Movies, Trespassers William, Silversun Pickups, Gwendolyn, and Eleni Mandell.   NEIL STRAUSS

Eleni Mandell is good, particularly her country album, Country for True Lovers.
