The Volunteers
CD release show with The Pomonas / Archetype / Fishboy / Born in the Flood
When: Saturday, Oct. 28, 2006, 9 p.m.
Where: The Bottleneck, 737 N.H., Lawrence
Cost: $5 - $7
Age limit: All ages
Categories: Hip-hop / rap, Rock
Description: Roughly one year after playing their first show, Lawrence's The Volunteers are celebrating the release of their eponymous debut full-length. The 12-song collection combines indie rock chops with folk sensibilities and sounds remarkably accomplished for such a fledging quartet. Singer/songwriter Tyler Jack Anderson sounds downright happy to be alive, waxing poetic to the warm and fuzzy sounds of acoustic guitar, Hammond organ, Wurlitzer and pedal steel. Not to be pigeonholed as alt-folkies, the group also displays a penchant for Built to Spill-sized guitar solos and actually good harmonies. The Volunteer four perform their community service Saturday night at The Bottleneck with fellow do-goodians The Pomonas, Archetype, Fishboy (Denton, TX) and Born in the Flood (Denver, CO).
