From The Deli NYC’s online music submissions: Dash Hammerstein

An unlikely combination, the music of Brooklyn piano-based rock group Dash Hammerstein sounds sort of like putting the Silver Jews into a bar with Wings and The Violent Femmes and admiring what drunken mess you’ve caused.

‘134340 Pluto’ (streaming below), from their latest EP ‘Old Country,’ opens like just another night at the bar, until the hook comes in and all kinds of surprising melodic journeys are encountered along the way. The night proceeds from there through five tracks, each with their own unique ways to declare the night is won, especially in album closer ‘Black Wax.’ The band swings their way around a piano like a Gibson SG lit up by twin Marshall stacks, and are just as pretty and danceable at once. Sober or not, this band will compliment any late night evenings. – Mike Levine (@Goldnuggets)
