THE
GENA ROWLANDS BAND plays songs about b-movie starlets, x-movie starlets,
ex-movie starlets, Academy Award Winning Actresses, people born in the
wrong skin, blonde strangers, convenience stores, bad parties, the Eisenhower
Interstate system, and Kongs words with Jesus in the aftermath of
a rough first date. Its late-night music. (Have a smooth beverage.)
Bob
Massey and his restless, oddball friends live and play in one of those
big American cities strung along Interstate 95 like Christmas lights for
astronauts. Down there in the middle lies Washington, D.C. When all the
broken glass and beer nuts are swept up after the party that was D.C.
punk, someone has to sing a wistful song to close out the night.
The
rage, the politics, the dissatisfaction havent gone away. Everyones
just a little wiser now.
If
you were to look up the bios of the Gena Rowlands Band players, you would
encounter names like Fugazi, Tsunami, Dismemberment Plan, et al. The Gena
Rowlands Band are people who were reared in that Washington D.C post-punk
community. Members have toured and recorded with those names and more.
But the big deal here is that the GRB leaves those names and sounds behind.
