Yesterday we posted an article on the great, weekly, did we mention FREE event, hosted by Loews Hotel Atlanta, called ‘LIVE at Loews.’ Tonight’s performance, beginning at 9 P.M. is from Atlanta’s own Indie-rockers, Trances Arc.
Trances Arc is comprised of long time friends, singer Eric Toledo, drummer Brad Hagen, guitarist Michael Dorio and bassist Danny Silvestri.
A song to check out: “Champagne Wishes” that is featured on the Starbucks Hear Music international compilation, “Off the Clock.” For a song that has brought notable fame to a hometown group, why not check it out!
Their latest record, TA, released in June, has 10 hit tunes that are bound to get you off your feet (Listed Below)! Scope these guys out.
Check out what is being said about Trances Arc:
“With its twin guitar attack, [Trances Arc] recalls the glory days of indie-rock then slips into a slithery T. Rex groove.”
— Brian Mansfield, USA TODAY
“Without sounding the least bit studied, Trances Arc upholds early ’90s alternative rumble as the new classic rock. Nearly every track comes as catchy and compelling as the one before, and the straightforward production suggests that they won’t falter when these rugged tunes hit the road.”
— Barry Walters, eMusic
This quartet out of Hotlanta seems to have absorbed most of the cool guitar work from the 60’s to the 90’s with none of the lame stuff, which adds up to a rocking, tuneful, toneful batch of songs… This album (XOXOX) is heavy on vibe, heavy on melody, and heavy on tone – a recipe for disaster if there ever was one. Nicely done.
–Matt Blackett, Guitar Player Magazine
“The music of Trances Arc is familiar and therein lies their charm. It’s instantly memorable, marked by tight musicianship, larger-than-life hooks and Eric Toledo’s stellar vocals.”
– Jonathan Sanders, News Editor at Stereo Subversion
