About Me

Here is a stupid video with cool pictures by Shawn Abnoxious from our recent show at the Southgate House.
PHOTOS FROM THE BARKINGHAUS SESSIONS.

If there were a punk band in the swing era of American music The Sundresses would be that band. Formed in 2002 in Cincinnati as kind of a joke, The Sundresses have been freaking out people ever since. In 2003 the band self-produced a full-length album, The Only Tourist In Town, for their friends in the Ohio River Valley. To their surprise, not only did people at home want to hear, but lots of other people wanted a listen, too. In fact, their ninth out of town show was South By Southwest 2004.
Since then they have performed in cities and towns from Colorado to Maine. The Sundresses are three people, but they have two drummers, two singers, two guitar players and one fine ass-swinging and stomping five-foot-tall bass/trombone player. the Sundresses put on a live show unlike any other. no pyro, no dat tracks, just three highly intuitive musicians with really loud amplifiers and drums and voices singing loud words loudly. some call it otherworldly, some call it religious, most get very drunk and have a great time.
With four consecutive SXSW's performed, many women swooned and many hands shook, the Sundresses are finishing a healthy 18-song full-length, titled "Barkinghaus".
The Sundresses have played with shit tons of bands, too many to remember, but i bet you have heard of some of them.
