DELICIOUS DELICIOUS PRESS

“…Like The Flaming Lips crossing paths with The White Stripes.” Nick Pittman The Times of Acadiana

"Brass Bed doesn’t traffic in the overproduced style that has become de riguer, and thank goodness for it! The band members are young and deliver what many people are looking for these days, an honest-to-goodness rock and roll show.” Anna Purdy – The Independent

“Anyone fortunate enough to catch a Brass Bed show or curious enough to buy a CD will not be disappointed in this imaginatively inventive band” Rachel Worthy – The Vermillion

“Indie Pop-Rock from one of Louisiana's up-and-coming best.” www.nola.com

"One second they were on a doo-wop and early R&B kick and the next they sounded like the Band, but it was all kick-ass." Jason Songe - Anti-Gravity Magazine

"Playing organic indie-pop that's grabby, earthy and intelligent, Brass Bed spices its psychedelic sounds with country nods like pedal steel, resulting in a compellingly distinctive assembly of instrumentation that dutifully serves each song." Wade Tantangelo - Creative Loafing

"A winning confluence of effervescent indie rock, quirky psych-pop, country and even a couple of moments of noise. Imagine one of the Elephant 6 bands, only powered with more rock juice and draped in some pedal steel." Bao Le-Huu - Orlando Weekly

Dear Brass Bed,

Thanks for adding us! Don't forget to check haveyouheard. net for our weekly podcast. We talk about music news, two new records that just came out that week, plus we invite a new band into our recording studio every episode. They play LIVE and do an interview (kind of like Daytrotter). Also, don't forget to check out the videos from the sessions so you can see the band live in action.

Every Monday at 97 Estoria, there's a FREE concert featuring cool local bands.

We're always looking for new talent, so show up with a demo if you're interested or know someone who is!

WE LOVE YOU!

I think the term for what is currently happening with you guys is "blowin' up". this basically means that you are currently enjoying the sweet/savory/salty tangs of burgeoning long-term success. I just want you to remember that I produced the living shit out of your record, and I'll do it again.
PS: Suck it.
