In an age of home studios and pre-programmed music, Brooklyn rock band The Beat Hounds believes in the old-fashioned idea of putting on a great liveshow and not being afraid to take musical risks in front of an audience. The power trio of Matt Lenny (guitar/vocals), David Jamison (drums/vocals), and James Preston (bass/vocals) use the recorded songs as jumping off points for high-wire acts of musical exploration.
As guitarist Matt Lenny explains,
“Half the fun of watching a band like Led Zeppelin or Cream is that sense of danger…it’s incredible when a band goes somewhere uncharted and manages to land on their feet. You can’t fake that.”
The Beat Hounds have just finished recording
their eponymous debut album in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
The album started when front man Matt Lenny was recovering from a car crash suffered while touring with Chicago art rockers Oh My God. Unable to walk for 4 months, Matt began writing songs as anemotional outlet and a way of reconnecting with the classic rock that had inspired him to go out on the road in the first place. After recovering and returning to Brooklyn, Matt began exploring and recording the songs in Brooklyn’s own Casa Nova Studios. The sessions ultimately resulted in a 10-song album and the new, power trio lineup of The Beat Hounds.
Armed with Matt Lenny’s 60s and 70s influenced tunes and a desire to push the classic rock envelope into more modern territory, The Beat Hounds will be touring in support of the album, which is slated for an April 27th, 2010 release on 180 gram vinyl, CD, and digital download.
