Pride Parade – (11/17/2009)
Pride Parade plays live in the WUOG lobby!
“The music? Gimmick-free rock. You can more or less trace the roots back to the Pacific Northwest circa the early ’90s. But instead of coming off as the umpteenth band mining a long-stripped set of influences, Pride Parade sounds more like a missing link from the era, a lost chapter in the Sub Pop catalog. Sad, slow and steady is the order of the day here, and the consistency of this record – in both senses of the word – is thick and solid. When white folks pick up electric guitars and evoke the blues, it’s always a tricky line to walk, but this stuff hits the mark in a way that is almost graceful.” – Jeff Tobias

“I play guitar and tell my secrets to audiences. When I don’t hate the world, I’m completely in love with it. My passions in life are music, graphic design, laughing and making people laugh, having awesome conversations, the internet, the concept of love, and attempting to solve problems and/or win hearts through catchy songs of hope.” -Allison Weiss

Hope For Agoldensummer – (11/3/2009)
Hope For agoldensummer plays live in the WUOG Lobby.
The thing with the soulful vocals, the soft finger-plucked instrumentation-it’s all so damn tangible, so damn human, so present. So much of the redemptive quality of all of Hope For Agoldensummer’s music comes from that ever-present (even in darkness) humanity… (Metro Spirit)

Bambara – (10/22/2009)
Bambara plays live in the WUOG Lobby!
“”The eponymously titled debut release from local three-piece Bambara is pretty damn good. Though the band has been playing together since early 2001, it wasn’t until October 2007 that the boys finally emerged from the shadows and began playing out, opening for the likes of A. Armada and Cinemechanica. This newest offering sounds emotionally charged and musically mature after six years of honing their craft. What unfolds from the speakers is an engulfing and often engaging blend of aggressive post-rock and psychedelic ambience.”

Reeks of Failure – (10/20/2009)
Reeks of Failure plays live in the WUOG Lobby.
“Formed in January of this year, this local band is grounded in the aesthetic that emerged from the early-’80s hardcore scene. “We like raw, stripped down rock music that has a life and an energy and an honesty to it,” says Lewin.
Although the band began by writing three-chord, loud, fast rock music, Reeks of Failure has begun to expand and experiment outside the box, writing new tunes infused with funk and adding a “wistful ballad-like number” in the mix. The newer material, says Lewin, is more akin to Jawbreaker, The Lawrence Arms and other such acts.”

The Brothers Marler play live in the WUOG lobby.
The Bros. have their own style.”, which “succeeds quietly, with understatement, and subtlety.”(Flagpole Mag) “Songs For Pluto”, “ displays poise and impressive versatility, sharing time on lead and rhythm guitar, stripped-down drums, piano, harmonica and bass…this approach combined with the boy’s soul inspired, almost Dylanesque, double vocal stylings create an entertaining album rich in character and style.” (Performer Mag) “ The Bros. Marler has knocked the dust of f of sounds old and new, just as Songs for Pluto will surely knock more dust off of your stereo.”(Hittin the Note Mag).
