Looker Gets Lucky At The Lucky Cat

Looker; The Shondes; Mystery Family
@ Lucky Cat
New York, NY - September 29, 2007


Despite a bad sound set-up and tech problems, the power pop and punk quartet of Looker displayed fiery prowess and a superb knack for sharp hooks and catchy melodies. And where did this band come from?! Did anyone know there was this ready-for-prime time rock n roll band about in New York City? These kids are for real.
The Shondes mix straight up rock with a fiddle and it's an interesting brew. Was the set perfect? No. But it's working with something good.
Mystery Family are a Riot Grrl inspired band that had their own share of string problems and whatnot but their cover of the Breeders showed they have the right roots in mind.

Due to the poor lighting of the Lucky Cat and the cheapness of Sonic Parthenon equipment, there are no video or pictures for this gig. Drag.
