New music: Apex Manor - "Under The Gun"
Thursday, January 13, 2011 at 7:00AM
Fans of The Broken West's sunny power-pop should take note - Apex Manor have risen from the ashes following the breakup of The Broken West in 2009. Songwriter Ross Flournoy got his groove back while writing a song to submit to an NPR songwriting contest (seriously), and began writing new songs at a feverish clip. He recorded the songs with help of fellow Broken West bandmate Brian Whelan. That first song was "Under The Gun", which you can stream/download below. If you were a fan of The Broken West (which I was) or Merge labelmates Telekinesis, you will probably dig this.
Debut album The Year of Magical Drinking drops 1/25 and Apex Manor supports The Damnwells at TTs on 3/23
