Returnables album for sale Product Description
"It's just about impossible not to like the band." - Portland Phoenix"Expect big returns from these three." - Capital Weekly The Returnables have been crisscrossing the Northeast for more than four years, building a loyal following and a back catalog of covers and originals more diverse than any radio station's. Now, with a CD release under their belts and another one on the way, they're setting their sights on bigger and better things. Guitarist Ian Parker, bassist Josh Robbins, and drummer Harley Smith met in music classes at UMaine-Augusta. Their musical backgrounds couldn't have been more different - while Parker was steeped in classic rock and Robbins thrived on the punk and indie sounds of the '80s, Smith favored the jazzy music of jam bands.
You wouldn't think a band could work with influences this diverse, but the Returnables do, and brilliantly. Starting as a bar band, they built up a repertoire that melds the last half of the 20th century's musical history in unexpected ways - Melanie's "Brand New Key" turns into Motorhead's "Ace of Spades," and the swagger of the Rolling Stones' "Loving Cup" can be followed by vague paranoia of Gordon Lightfoot's "Sundown." On The Returnables, the band's debut album, the covers fall by the wayside, but the influences remain. ...See Full Description
