About Me

"The Ramonalisas - Wintersliding, Isometerecords
Sheryl Crow managed to craft some killer songs with the help of her Tuesday Night Music Club, a group of talented musicians that jammed together every Tuesday night. The Ramonalisas may not meet every Tuesday night, but music fans will be happy with the Dallas club’s album.

Why club and not group? Well, group indicates a small gathering. Led by Tania Rivas, The Ramonalisas number about 19, including John Dufhilo, Sara Radle, and Regina Chellew. Really, the roster is a who’s who of local stardom lending their talents to the ten tracks.

Sounding like 10,000 Maniacs meets The Sundays, every song has something spectacular to offer. “Bar Of Soap” may be the best of the bunch, with its addictive lead guitar track and snappy drumbeat. The album’s double-tracked vocals are a bit much at times, especially since so many talented singers were available to sing more backup parts. Thank goodness some of Dallas’ best musicians joined together to record as The Ramonalisas. Now, if only they’d invite the public to hear more from their club."

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 07/06/2006
Band Website: http://www.isometerecords.com/
Band Members: the ramonalisas are:
tania aka t-money
tania grew up both on the mean streets of first ward in houston and in the racially tense wooded suburbs of oak ridge... the disparity of cultures has left her confused and unable to find the right words in 3 different languages. she enjoys dominating kareoke bars, bespectacled anglophiles, and good puns. j-root aka butcher baby::::
jared lawson plays in many projects including trifle tower, the felons, omg ur dead & netwerks. j-root enjoys trifling, rapping, and is a prize winning quilter.
::::::::
Itchy Richie: Richard Keller is a man of many faces, and none of them particularly pretty, except the one that parades around with too much eyeliner. That one's pretty sexy. Itchy, as he is called in some circles due to his addiction to rolling around in piles of fiberglass insulation (not to mention the 3000+ women he's slept with, and countless bastard children), has been known to play bass in Dallas with many different bands (one for every woman he's slept with, to be exact), up to and including Black Wax Midget, The UBA, Sound Machine, Rainy October Nights, and Velcro for Jesus. He may actually be a woman.

past members include:
andres of tonite tonite, elizabeth gisler, jose sanchez, cari weinberg, dave hickmott, fred holston, elizabeth gisler and aaron wagner, Joshua Warr, Jenn Nabb, Aaron Lake, John Hamulak, Todd Gunther, Matt Kellum, James Driscoll, Carter Albrecht, John Dufhilo, Reggie Reuffer, Salim Nourallah, Curtis Heath, Ed McMahon, Regina Chellew, Josh McKibben, Tim Ruble, Jason Roberts, Andrea Roberts, Vincent Wilbanks, Sara Radle, Ryan McGeeney, Johnny Lloyd Rollins, Ben Meyercord.
Sounds Like: "A brimful of postmodern 80's-influenced pop that will fill a dancefloor with people who will want to dance but will not understand why. Or even how." Gary Dickerson, Self Help Radio, 91.7 fm KOOP Austin
Type of Label: Indie
