Pre-Release Interview: Soft Paws
Next in line for our stellar summer release schedule is a personal favorite of ours: Soft Paws - Live from the Banana Stand. The album was recorded last June and turned out really, really excellent. A preview is available right now. The full album will be released next Tuesday and, like I said, is super awesome. Make sure you grab it!
To get ready for the release, we got together with Brandon and Ethan from Soft Paws, who told us what the bands been doing over the last year. Thanks dudes!
Banana Stand: It's been almost a year since we last chatted. What's been happening with Soft Paws?
Soft Paws: A lot has changed since we saw you last. A few months back, our band line-up changed. We are now a 4 piece with two new members: Bass, guitar, drums, and keys.
BS: How about your other projects. What else have you been working on during the last year?
SP: SpaceTeam; an up and coming internet serial. Brandon is now a dad, and life is great!
BS: What has been your favorite thing in Portland music in the last year? In music beyond Portland?
SP: Tiger House!
BS: Do you have any events coming up that folks should check out?
SP: We are preparing some new material, as well as developing some elements that we would like to incorporate into live performance. You can follow us on facebook for upcoming shows, etc.
Big thanks to Brandon Goodrich and Ethan Homan from Soft Paws for participating in our interview. Soft Paws, as recorded 6/26/10, was Brandon, Ethan and Justin Christopher. Their live album, recorded here at The Banana Stand last June, comes out Tuesday, June 7th and is really fucking awesome. Be sure to grab it next Tuesday!
