Praise for Blake Rainey and his Demons and Helicopter Rose:
“Atlanta-based folk rock outfit Blake Rainey & His Demons are storytellers above all else. With every turned melody and rustic rhythm, they discover the heart of what it means to use music to pass on stories from one generation to the next.” – NOOGA.COM
“It’s the power pop sound of a vacay that goes to hell in a handbasket while the chords keep the energy & spirits on the up & up (no matter what trouble comes their way).” – IMPOSEMAGAZINE.COM
“Much like Warren Zevon and Tom Waits before him, Rainey is the kind of guy that likes singing songs about bad guys from the bad guy’s perspective … he pivots between cabaret, jazz, and big band music all while singing about copping drugs and sneaking into people’s houses.”- PUNKNEWS.ORG
JEREMY RAY:
Those familiar with Atlanta artist and musician Jeremy Ray know that he is a livewire – an upbeat dude, quite literally bursting with energy at the seams. His solo acoustic live shows are typically indicative of that energy, frenetic and barn-burning. It may be a bit of a surprise then to find Jeremy’s latest EP The Last Take in a much more restrained, nuanced, and layered territory; this is a side of Jeremy’s music that is most comfortable in the studio, or at home alone, and as such these songs are moody, textured, and absorbing. More than anything, these songs are really just uniquely Jeremy, and The Last Take is a gorgeous and welcome release to get lost in until Jeremy’s full-length arrives.
EX-WIVES:
Ex-Wives started as a side project to several different bands that we each are in or were a part of. You might recognize Mekenzie (lead vocals) and Alex (lead guitar) from Rumours, Atlanta’s favorite Fleetwood Mac Tribute. Nick (bass) was in the band Sick Figures, and Price (drums) was a founding member of The Whiskey Gentry. We’re extremely excited for you to hear our new EP and we’re working very hard to get it done right. – exwivesband.com
