Pithy Sweet, a trio from Fullerton, puts a modern edge on psychedelic rock. Influenced by bands like The Velvet Underground, The Who, and The Black Keys, their sound is reminiscent of The Black Angels with a more upbeat twist. Ben Kent(vox/guitar), Evan Novorot(bass), and Robert Burrison(drums) have been playing music together since they were 16.
The band just released their EP "Hole In My Pocket" on the 13th. Consisting of 4 tracks, it begins with the pulsating and progressive tune "Bring It On", and follows with the more alternative "Fight To This Song", electrifying and angst-ridden. The third track, "Freeze", is nostalgic with funky, playful guitar riffs. "Stella" resonates airy reverbs and a hypnotic 60’s feel.
