Dromedary Records presents: Moviola, Antietam, and Sleepyhead
Moviola: in support of their 11th album “Earthbound,” the Columbus, Ohio collective step on with a world-weary stride, making the most personal, direct and urgent music of their lives. Inbetween the cracks of the musical Rust Belt, Moviola has quietly produced an expansive catalog spanning everything from 4-track fuzz-pop to hi-fi country soul. Sounding less like their Columbus punk contemporaries and more like “Neil Young’s noisy nephews” (LA Weekly), “Earthbound” is the most realized, succinct and least ambiguous effort of their career.
Punk pioneers Antietam originally hail from Louisville, Kentucky, but have been based in New York since the late 1980s. Led by guitar hero Tara Key with bassist Tim Harris with drummer Josh Madell, they have a long and influential history, signing their first deal with Homestead Records after opening for Husker Du. One of the longest-running and most influential bands in American indie rock, they are currently working on their 12th studio album.
Sleepyhead was formed in a basement room at NYU’s Brittany dorm in the fall of 1989, releasing their first 7”, the Kramer-produced “Play,” in 1991. They’ve released records on Slumberland, Homestead, Sealed Fate and Carrot Top Records and have shared the stage with such legendary bands as Polvo, Half Japanese, Yo La Tengo, The Grifters, and many more. Now based in Boston, the country-tinged indie rock band is making their second appearance at Tubby’s and is sure to perform some material from their forthcoming LP.
