ABOUT WET HAIR :
Wet Hair is Shawn Reed and Ryan Garbes, the two remaining members of Raccoo-oo-oon that stayed in Iowa City after the bands end. Reed also runs Night-People Records, which Garbes often contributes to. Wet Hair began as a solo outing for Reed in late 2007 during the final months of Raccoo-oo-oon, and after the release of a 12” EP and the Irifi Cassette Garbes was added on organ and live drums. Wet Hair has evolved over time shifting the bands sound steadily towards a more refined pop sensibility. An experimental attitude and psychedelic atmosphere still prevails in Wet Hair’s music and the core instrumentation of the band has largely stayed consistent throughout with Reed on vocals, synth, drum machine, + tapes and Garbes on live drums, + synth/organ. Recently the band has evolved into a trio with bassist Justin Tye rounding out the group.
To date Wet Hair has released a 12” EP on Night-People, three cassettes on Night-People, the LP’s Dream and Glass Fountain on Not Not Fun, a split 7” with Peaking Lights on Not Not Fun, a split 7” with Rene Hell on Bathetic, and a split LP with Naked on the Vague on Night-People. In late 2010 Wet Hair added third member Matt Fenner to the group on bass and synth to help create their third full length album, In Vogue Spirit, which came out on De Stijl Records in May 2011.
ABOUT NOTV:
Naked On the Vague is Lucy (keys/vox/drum box), Matthew (guitar/electronics), Nic (bass guitar) and Lachlan (drums).
Naked On The Vague were born out of Sydney, Australia in 2006, taking to the world their own style of apocalyptic no-wave pop and dark psychedelic weirdness… Originally a keys, guitar and drum machine duo, the band recently expanded to include a ‘proper’ rhythm section to the effect of upping the garagey-pop vibe, yet also the visceral density.
The Naked On The Vague approach meshes punk, industrial and psychedelic sounds all tinkered with a heavy dose of distortion and delay.
ABOUT HEAD:
Head is a 1968 psychedelic no-opening credits comedy-adventure major motion picture, starring TV group The Monkees (in credit order: Peter Tork, Davy Jones, Micky Dolenz and Michael Nesmith), and distributed by Columbia Pictures. It was written and produced by Bob Rafelson and Jack Nicholson, and directed by Rafelson.
