Broncho - Waterloo Records, SXSW, Austin TX - March 20, 2015

[Oklahoma] Kind of straightforward rock n’ roll although maybe it sounded that way because I was too tired to put my earplugs in. 70s punk sometimes – Velvet Underground – a little new wave. The guys has the squeaky voice like the guy from Hunx & His Punx or maybe Marc Bolan – I couldn’t get past his completely filthy hair – the oil glistened from as far back as I was in the audience. The whole band was defined by their hair. There was the girl on guitar with the big bush of curly hair (adorable) with a tiger shirt and patterned leggings – the lead guy made a sarcastic comment & she chuckled & then shut her face down when she remembered she was breaking band attitude code. The other girl on guitar had a whole mess of shaved head, long strands, tiny bangs – it worked. There were two other guys too. So the band spent a lot of time swinging their magnificient hair around when they’d hit a jam – there were a lot of these moments and despite their overall goodness, they started to sound the same. And I will not capitalize their damn name.
