Sat. Dec. 13th 2008 - Shearwater @ Kexp Yule Benefit

Sat. Dec. 13th 2008 - Shearwater @ Kexp Yule Benefit

Shearwater, from Austin Texas, mesmerized the Yule Benefit crowd at Neumos with their soaring "mystic rock".  They combined ethnic percussion instruments like you might hear on a Peter Gabriel record with vocals like Jeff Buckly or Morrissy, backed up by a solid rock band like The National or The Frames.  Fans of any of the above mentioned artists won't be disappointed!  Kexp's Cheryl Waters is bonkers over their latest release on Matador Records,  "Rooks".   -Kelly Dale
