Indie-style power pop with a focus on memorable melodies and alternately energetic and emotional performances.
Bio / Background
'A Twist Of Lemon,' the debut album from THE SHAKE UPS, is a sticky-sweet confection of 14 eclectic guitar-pop gems, ranging from 60's-style rock to indie folk and a bit of post-punk alternative abandon. This ragtag little band evokes everyone from the Shins and XTC to Weezer and Apples In Stereo, all the while sounding every bit like themselves.
Drummer Kathie O'Connor lays down a four-on-the-floor beat, while her husband, singer/songwriter/guitarist Patrick, alternately belts out Costello-ish rockers and croons Elliott Smith-style meditations. Fellow songwriter Curtis Wyant rips a page out of the 60's rock songbook with his melodic bass and keyboard lines, and guitarist Ed Cho fingerpaints all over the proceedings with his wirey Pixies-style leads.
THE SHAKE UPS will shake you up and then sing you off to sleep. Enjoy the ride!
