It’s always nice to switch up your musical routine and add some fresh talent to your aresenal. Rentz Leinbach is exactly who I’m talking about when I say this. The recent Deli Artist of the Month is multi-instrumentalist, inspired by greats like Guided by Voices, Hasil Adkins and Elvis Costello. He’s been a solo acoustic artist (under the names the Pink Leather Tats and Root Shocker) and part of a three-piece band (Neither v. Either), but his current incarnation is quite addiciting. Rentz has got a show coming up on the 18th with Moon By You and Dim Wit at the Liquor Store, and a cassette release show at Mother Foucault’s Bookshop on June 18th. He may only be one person, but he can put on one hell of a performance.
