Banderas: Beast Sounds and Parlour Tricks

photo: Ryan Thomas

Cincinatti quintet Banderas describes themselves as a dirty band and there is a lot of truth in that. This is a band with low slung guitars, throaty vocals, and in-your-face drums. They sound like an expanded version of the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, with the MC5 and the Stooges lurking in the background. Their album Beast Sounds and Parlour Tricks is the kind of music you hope to hear coming out of the speakers of a battered radio on a construction site.

Banderas:
Jeremy Constantinople: vocals, guitar
Jesse James Ramsey: guitar
Cu Silvio: guitar
T.R. McHenry: keyboards, guitar
Donkey: drums
