Shuckster Single “Three Of Swords”
“III of Swords” is the debut Single from Shuckster, a rock and roll band from Nashville, TN. Made up of Mike Williams and Andy Zimmerman (of The Running) on guitar/vocals and drums respectively, and Ben Lowry (of the 1-10’s and Bang OK Bang) on bass/vocals. The single was produced by Brad Voss, whose past recording projects include bands like The Meat Puppets. Shucksters brand of rock and roll is astonishingly raw for how melodic it is. The harmonic counterpoint between the vocal lines of Williams and Lowry, laid over top of classic song structures is pleasantly irresistible. The songwriting occupies a space sometime between Buddy Holly and Elvis Presley, while the loud/soft dynamics and guitar tones put you right in the peak of 90’s grunge in the vein of The Pixies or Nirvana. The single is available on itunes, Spotify, bandcamp, and from other online music vendors.

Jøur Shares “Danger Game” Track
JOUR is contrast. head vs heart. light vs dark. clear vs obscure. minimalism vs complexity. analog vs electronic.

Songs which ask the questions of life’s purpose or express doubts about the future are yet winsome and inviting as JØUR’s vocals flit between angelic delicacy and explosive power. Pairing electronic minimalism with elegant musical composition, JØUR achieves what is both timeless and relevant.
