The England Ramaband // All I Do

It's equal parts interesting and disheartening when one starts reading the dozen or so music-related blogs and websites in the area for extended stretches of time only to discover that for the most part everyone seems to cover the same bands and shows at the same times. One of the benefits of the diverse body of voices from this dedicated body of hobbyists and in some cases professionals is the supposed wide array of viewpoints and unique musical discoveries. Maybe we all read one another's work too often or take each other too seriously?

Whatever the case may be, one of the biggest shames is whenever an artist seems to have slipped through the cracks of online local awareness. For instance, a performer like Kevin England whom we've seen dozens of times over the last several years splitting time with a handful of different projects. Whether it be his semi-tongue-in-cheek experimental sex-obsessed electro funk trio Wonderboom, his power pop duo The Up and Ups, his electronic loop-based solo material, or any of the various brands of dance, glam, electro, and rock he's parceled together under any of the England Ramaband incarnations he's never failed to present a final product that is both interesting/fresh in approach, and wildly entertaining.

The England Ramaband and Wonderboom both perform at this Saturday's 6th annual Novemberfest at The Porch in Romney, TX. (Just hit us up here if you need a map)
