Elk City was one of the (many) NYC bands that deserved more attention in the aughts, and also one of the (not so many) to be rewarded with a Deli NYC Record of the Month around 2007, when their album "New Believers" dropped. We are therefore thrilled to hear that two fourths of the original group, including backing vocalist Barbara Endes and guitarist Sean Eden, are back in action with a new group called Girls on Grass. They just released a self titled LP full of electric folk songs with a slight psychedelic accent, sounding as if 10,000 Maniacs were part of the late ’80s Paysley Underground movement. They’ll be performing next on Friday, Jan 8 at the Rent Party benefit in Maplewood, NJ. Check out album opener "Father Says Why," streaming below.
