With influences ranging from the song craft of Paul Weller, Robert Pollard, and Uncle Tupelo to the bombast of Jawbreaker and Dinosaur Jr., Thee L.A. Gentlemen Callers carry the torch of rock and roll with a beer soaked intensity not felt since the days when the Replacements stole your heart.
Thee Callers' newest effort, a 5 song e.p entitled "The Kindness Of Strangers" was recorded at Steve Albini's Electrical Audio studios in Chicago, IL and produced by Manny Nieto, known to those in the know as frontman for the mighty Distortion Felix. Manny has recorded Mars Volta, the Breeders, Darker My Love, among a big roster of great L.A. bands. It was mastered by Mark Chalecki at Capitol Mastering. Three of the four songs on this page are from this recording, as well as a video for a fourth if you click on the video chingadera. Anyone interested in an enhanced copy of it which includes the video for "Stab, Shoot, And Disappear", please contact us directly.
