From the ashes of Munly and the Lee Lewis Harlots, the Wheel (Nathaniel Rateliff’s backing band) and a little help from Snake Rattle Rattle Snake, comes Bare Bones. Their music resonates like heartache after a night of crying profusely with only a bottle of Stranahan’s Whiskey close by in an open field of blanketed by shining stars as the only means of company. Look for them to drop their first demo mid-March which will be available at their shows.Bare Bones will only be doing two shows at SXSW this year. Not bad, considering they’ve played a handful shows around town since their inception. Time is very precious in SX for the people that want to fit in the most acts they can in a 4-5 day period. Not to mention when there’s acts only doing one or two shows and you have others doing nine or ten. Tons of strategy is involved, and no time to waste. (Photo via: Gary Isaacs)
