A band name to really rile up yer classic rock purists 'waaaa but this is not Rory Gallagher's seminal blues rock band', you're right and I don't know how Oli Lipton of Cindy is getting away with it? But he makes a scuzzy lo-fi glam garage rock boogie that may just win em over or not?
For those who dig: Ty Segall, T Rex, Kinks when they're a little bit glam, Nikki Sudden, Purling Hiss, White Fence...
Taste is the solo project of Oli Lipton (Now, Cindy) born of countless after-hours time spent in his home studio and the hoarded recordings those efforts produced. 1/2 Fantasy, released via Tough Love, splits two previously self-released tapes down the middle, side by side, to form a debut LP of sorts. It’s like summer wine and starshine on a night that lasts for years or just a few minutes. Habits, loves, money spent, Friday night, Saturday morning— a rock 'n' roll heart steps out with a Les Paul, a pen, and tongue firmly in cheek. Looking sharp and clean but feeling dirty, a hip priest Nikki Sudden if he cared to hone a craft.
