Flyboy: i will definitely follow you to pottymouth if you come to the mates of state. how could you pass up a chance to see me dance like a maniac again?
The doors open at 7:30 and there's only one other band playing, so we should be able to make it to both...
from the tickets website, not a bad description...they are super-energetic performers and married to each other:
"Kori Gardner and Jason Hammel, the San-Francisco based duo behind Mates of State, rely on nothing more than a synthesizer and some drums to conjure their perversely melodic song cycles. Gardner makes up for the lack of low end with an adept use of her keyboard bas pedals while Hammel's crashly-bashly cymbal wash fills the remaining space. Significantly the pair's greatest assets is their voices, which harmonize, overlap and react" |
