Garboski

"The fortunate result of three outstanding musicians all without a band at the same time, Garboski found themselves performing well-attended and well-received shows from the band's inception. Without even a demo track to toss onto MySpace for most of a year (though there's now three great songs), Garboski quickly developed a reputation, among fellow musicians especially, as one of Tucson's best live bands. All veterans of numerous Tucson bands (Beau Bowen: Maintenance, Lloyd Dobler; Garth Bryson: Ladies and Gentlemen, Maintenance; Josh Skibar: Is To Feel, Fun With Dirt, The Bled) they fell together naturally, creating an energetic sound that gives each instrument equal footing. The trio - Bowen on guitar, Bryson on bass and Skibar on drums - plays a bombastic rock music, full of starts and stops, soaring melodies and rapturous, frenzied instrumenal passages. Garboski sometimes recalls the Seattle explosion circa 1991, but leans more post-rock than punk." --Catfish Vegas (catfishvegas.blogspot.com) <a
