Katy Mae is an alt-rock band from Brooklyn, New York. Their latest EP is called You May Already Be A Winner and it was released last Tuesday, October 21st (although it should be noted that they just recently played a CD release party on the 18th).
What caught my attention about this band is that they describe themselves as sounding like The Replacements and Hüsker Dü (both Minneapolis bands). I don't know, clearly the band has that 70's rock/pop feel to it, but I wouldn't compare them to the 'Mats or the Dü. Perhaps it's the singer's country-ish/manly sound that is throwing me off? Normally on these EPs, I go with the lead song; in this case would've been "Two Dollars Late" but that song starts off a little slow. It does build up a bit with layers and sudden stop/start timing... but I thought "Let Me Bring You Down" sounds a little more muscular with its constant guitar chords and drums. You May Already Be A Winner is out now on Maggadee Records, where you can find their older releases, The Sweetheart Deal and The Lightning and the Sun |
