Dexateens L-R: Brian Gosdin (drums), Brad Armstrong (guitar, vocals), Elliott McPherson (guitars, vocals), Lee Bains III (guitar, vocals), Matt Patton (bass)
Here’s a pair of videos from one of my favorite bands, The Dexateens. Both songs are from their new album, Singlewide, released last month by Skybucket Records. Fans of The Jayhawks, Faces, Exile-era Stones, and Drive-By Truckers, pay heed. If you’re like me, you might also be thinking, “Wait a second. They still make videos???” Exactly. That’s how old-school the Dexateens are. They actually make videos and release albums on the vintage compact disc format. You can’t buy that kinda street cred on teh googles.
