Ben Harper is a great supporter of
this band from Austin, Texas, formed by Bob Via (vocals),
Jason Mozersky (guitars), Aaron Herbster (bass) and Steven
Sanders (drums/percussion).
— official bio
—
If Freddy Mercury was straight and sang for Led Zeppelin
If Robert Plant moved to Seattle
If Texas had no cowboys
Then Wan Santo Condo
If a quartet was an orchestra
And the conducter on Lithium
Then Wan Santo Condo
Bob Via sings beautifully, passionately
Jason Mozersky doesn't weave or bob as
much as melodically lick it to death
The bass and drums ?
Peanut butter and jelly
Aaron Herbster
Steven Sanders
Their very own Simonon/Bonham duo
And so with all due respect to everyone
involved in referential rock poetry type bios... |
