Eureka California

Mon, September 9, Doors: 5:00 pm - Show: 5:30 pm - All Ages - $5  Artist Website
The Vaudeville Mews presents...
Eureka California tells stories of a society in decline, of dysfunctional citizens awash in their unsatisfied, fucked-up desires. They make yearning, echo beach nuggets pop that tells stories of life in the southern college town of Athens, Georgia. His voice at times eerily reminiscent of La's frontman Lee Mavers, EC's Jake Ward is razor sharp and soaked in sweat. Overeducated and underappreciated, Ward shouts out his agitated power pop with a fuzzy intelligence. Jake may sing "I will control the nation," but he knows that's never going to happen. It's just a joke he tells himself to make himself feel better, when every day just brings more awkward conversations, more books lent out and never returned. Nothing to do but get drunk and jump around, try to crack each other up.
