Bridges And Squares 10 - Quilt
Bridges & Squares is killing it in ‘11. We took our baby steps in 2010 and now we are graduating toddler school. What a better way to start off a new run of episodes than with Quilt. When we started the show last year, Quilt was always one of the bands we wanted to have on as guests. Thankfully, they found the time for us in January. We recorded them at Great Scott, for our first recording at a club. They combine great harmonies with hypnotic minimal music. It is the type of music you can listen to again and again and discover new sounds and nuances you did not hear previously. Their show was great and they even rocked and off-stage sound manipulator, a la Mission of Burma. The whole bill was great. It was put together by the Pelly Twins, a pair of sisters with great tastes in music. Right now, Quilt are killing down in Austin, TX but make sure to check them now out next time they are in Boston. Check out their website to see what they are up to.
Also on the show, Ted, Colin, And Meghan talk about music and why Libya would be a much more interesting conflict if we called it Labia instead.
Thanks again to Great Scott, specifically, Chris and Carl for being so accommodating. And thanks to Quilt for being patient with us, the turn around time for producing this show was a bit slow. Stay tuned for the next show with The Battleships Cometh and hopefully the return of Streight Angular after that.
