Stardeath (dad's band) Updates

So, Stardeath and White Dwarfs (SDWD) just played the Norman Music Festival yesterday. It was an amazing show with hundreds of people in the audience. Not too shabby for a performance in a tiny street at 4:45 on a hot, sunny, and muggy afternoon in Norman.. I will have more pictures of yesterday soon, but here is something I just found online:




Guardian UK names OKC's Stardeath 'New Band of the Day'

"Says Guardian UK's Paul Lester of the Oklahoma psychedelic rock at Stardeath and White Dwarfs in today's editions:


They're good. Really good. ...


You could call it psychedelic soul but that makes you think of the Temptations' circa Cloud Nine and that's not quite right. Cosmic country is closer but Gram Parsons this ain't – think more Band of Horses or My Morning Jacket if they were on 90s Warp. 'I Can't Get Away' is all mad fizzy synths and manic cartoon frenzy belying a serious, poignant message.


The buzz: "Stardeath & White Dwarfs' heavy, gods-hammering sound owes as much to sludgy prog-rock influences like King Crimson and Pink Floyd as it does to Uncle Wayne's oeuvre." Yep, he means Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne.
