Four By Four: Volume 2
Bon Savants (Portland, OR / Boston, MA)
Thomas Moran Vocals, Guitar
Kevin Haley - Vocals, Guitar
David Wessel - Bass
Andrew Dole - Drums
Hailing from Portland, OR, Bon Savants (means good scientist in French) re-located to Boston to spread their brand of post-rock. They've been compared to Psychedelic Furs and British Sea Power. Bon Savants could quite be the most talented band that nobody knows - until now. www.bonsavants.com
The Plain Janes (Boston, MA)
Colin Mahoney - Drums
Dave Halligan - Guitar
Darren Ottaviani - Synth
Greg Britton - Vocals, Guitar
Jim Gilbert - Bass
The Plain Janes have been recently described as The
Smashing Pumpkins meets Echo and the Bunnymen. Their
darkly, drawn pop songs are full of glimmering
sonic-wash. Some of their songs are happy, even silly,
and some are sad, or dare we say tragic-but all speak
to some truth they've discovered in their lives--and
life, when observed closely, is a beautiful, silly, tragic thing. www.theplainjanes.com

Adam Rich - Voice
Neil Simmons - Guitar, Drums
Mike Crockett - Drums, Guitar, Voice
Andy MacKenzie Jr. - Bass

Roh Delikat (Boston, MA)
Kristina Johnson - Guitar, Bass, Vocals
Scott Craggs - Drums, Percussion, Bass
​
Kristina Johnson and Scott Craggs are making music for the new millennium. Their drum and bass and wall of guitar assault - juxtaposed with the soft delicate vocal melodies-is so refreshing. Think Ronnie Size meets NIN meets the Sundays, and then think again. Live and on record, Johnson and Craggs recreate the uncreated.
