Q&A in Quick

Must be a slow news day, because we ended up on the cover of Quick magazine. We had a nice chat with Hunter Hauk the other day and somehow he managed to transcribe our ramblings into semi-coherent answers. Read the full piece here.

More Observer Observations

Pete Freedman blogs and posts a track, The 1912 Horsey Rebellion.

Dallas Observer Review

The Dallas Observer takes a mighty whack:

"Captaineered" by Stuart Sikes and aided by Jim White on drums and Chris McGuire and Randy Graham on horns, Experiment in Error showcases the band's skill at playing with all kinds of riffs and musical ideas.

Take the rest of the joyride here.

Pegasus News Review

Catherine Cuellar from Pegasus News writes:

If soundtracks for Spaghetti Westerns and '60s sex comedies were free from cinematic distractions, or the Stax recording studio in Memphis, Tennessee hadn't been torn down and replaced by a museum, their resulting music might compare to Experiment in Error...

A little write up in Quick (and a tune)

The fine folks at Quick have also enblogulated a tune from the new album. Sample "Bill Cosby" over at the Hot 'n' Fresh blog.

Dallas Morning News Review

The DMN has their say:

The Dallas band's excellent second CD is a Whitman's Sampler of instrumental rock: Booker T.-style jams sit side-by-side with surf tunes, synth struts and sci-fi cowpoke ditties. On the off chance you miss the humor in the music, check out the song titles: "Meatballs," "Bill Cosby" and "These Are My Cousins Gastro and Cydebar."

Ft. Worth Star-Telegram Review

The first review is in:

The music made by Shibboleth (Rich Martin, Don Cento and James Driscoll; the threesome is joined by drummer Jim White here) is a gleeful amalgam of almost every genre under the sun. Error, the Dallas-based instrumental trio's sophomore effort completed with help from local ace Stuart Sikes -- following 2003's self-titled debut -- further cements these dazzling, dexterous artists as some of the Metroplex's most exciting. Personal fave: the electro-surf-grungy Meatballs. The disc hits stores Tuesday; the band will play a CD release party at Dallas' Sons of Hermann Hall on May 17

Quick!

A lovely little write-up appeard in the Dallas Morning News Quick. Check it out.

It Pays to Lose

If you're in Dallas, pick up a copy of the May 5th Observer which features some kind words about Shibboleth as well other great musicians. Check it out online if you're more electronically inclined.

Ahhhhhhh Luxury

Speaking of incongruous, Shibboleth is featured in the new issue of Modern Luxury Dallas in a spiffy little article on page 90. We couldn't be happier. You can find the mag here in Dallas at 22 different Starbucks locations. Look for the oversized publication with Mena Suvari on the cover (not sure why they didn't put us on there...)

Shibboleth Needs You

Shibboleth has been nominated for Best Jazz group in the Dallas Observer Music Awards. If you've got a few spare mintues we'd appreciate your vote. And tell a friend!!!
