Each of the Days has six members. Two guitarists, a bassist, vocalist, drummer and can you guess the last?
A percussionist!
As you've probably guessed I'm a sucker for different or unusual instrumentations. I love a little something unique and the extra percussionist in Each of the Days sells it for me. It enables them to do quite a bit rhythmically and allows them to use more percussion then what's found in a typical rocker's drum kit. Listen carefully for those little unique touches, they're what's going to keep the band relevant and interesting as they continue to "grow-up."
Check out a recent music video from them:
Notice anything else awesome?
Female drummer is wicked. Female drummer in f*cking leopard print heels is crazy awesome. Most bands don't have female drummers and I suspect that's it for a similar reason there aren't very many professional female concert pianists. That isn't to say it's a correct assumption, but here it is: women don't have the muscle and stamina to perform for a two hour concert. Proving it's not true is Mako, the cutest female drummer ever.
And just for the fun of it, here's a 2nd "live" video:
So there you go. A new band from my home away from home.
In a poor attempt to make up for my extreme non-posting these last few months expect a few more in the next few days.
