A while back we met a really cool dude at Azucar’s. A short fellow with a cool disposition.Turns out he’s the lead guitarist for a pretty dope band. And by dope I mean supremely superior.
We finally had a chance to check them out for real at The Pagoda the other weekend for one of many shows I am sure they will be hosting all around the bay pretty soon. Every member was cooler than a polar bear’s toe nails and held an abundance of skill with their instrument. To say the lead singer’s voice is magical would be gay, so I won’t say that. But I will say that she is mesmerizing. Once she opens her mouth and starts belting you have no choice but to watch with your eyes & listen with your heart. Since I couldn’t get a good view from the front I took a side position and peeped the band. I will say that what was going on back there was like watching a fireworks show up close. If you didn’t move with the music then you can pretty much consider yourself dead.
The fact that most of them were rocking our gear puts them on a grander level in my book.

We got there a little late and missed Raquel Rodriguez’s performance so we bought both CD’s for sale and bumped them on our way outta town last weekend.
They are definitely a group you do not want to miss & if you’re from San Jose and you haven’t heard of them yet, your welcome.
