bridge club

Bridge Club formed as a 4 piece in November of 2002, but it wasn’t until June of the next year that all the pieces started to fall into place. The trio line up would showcase the songwriting abilities, playing prowess, and big-time rock swagger these fuzzed-out, garage rockers have. In August of 2003 the Commander Mandible e.p. was released and the band found success not only in recording but on the stage. Their live sets proved to be tight, mean, and blistering renderings of the songs.Bridge Club began to find critical success and gained a vehemently loyal crowd. In October of 2004 they dropped their debut full length, Summer of the Jackal. The shows got bigger and they found significant air play on college radio. They rode this energy into shows with The Libertines, Metric, The Hold Steady and Har Mar Superstar.The band continued their reputation for intense live shows and explosive playing. With the 2006 release of The Scorched Capsule, Bridge Club have created a group of songs that work together as an album. Experimenting with different styles of structuring, they have created a new style while still staying true to their rock roots. The Scorched Capsule shows a broader dynamic between sounds and a definite evolution in the band.have you heard the new album yet? no? well you could get it at:http://cdbaby.com/cd/bridgeclubIn addition to all that stellar information you've just read, one more bit: Bridge Club broke up in July of 2007.
