Recommended show: Tonstartssbandht album release party at Silent Barn tomorrow (06.27)

You haven’t experienced Tonstartssbandht until you’ve seen them on stage. Two brothers by way of Florida, Andy and Edwin White expel a presence powerful enough to bring us close to a religious experience.  Their heavily delayed vocals and precise guitar effects create an incredibly unique yet distinctly psychedelic wash of sound, but don’t pigeon-hole them into the psych-rock genre; they harness about as many different rock n’ roll aesthetics and styles as you can imagine in just one song or – in their case – medleys.  Andy, who plays a 12-string guitar and is one of the most personable front-people out there, exhibits an incredible array of guitar tones and playing styles, with colors ranging from jangling melodies to heavily distorted break-downs.  But the single most important thing about Tonstartssbandht is their incredible spirit, we have yet to see a band come to Brooklyn with as positive an energy as these two brothers. Check out their live album they just put up on bandcamp, the release show is this Friday (that’s TOMORROW), June 27th at The Silent Barn. -Jake Saunders
