Faster Forward/Lonely Trailer at the Brass Rain

July 15th, 2010 Posted in Show Reviews

Faster Forward came out of hiding for the first of 3 shows they’ll be doing in the next few weeks.

Tonight they opened up for Lonely Trailer and gosh darn – they sounded awesome! All three members were singing in harmony and the playing was the tightest I’ve ever seen from this group (and I’ve seen ‘em a few times). The set started off with a energetic rendition of their original ‘Manifest’ followed by a quick comment from John ‘that turned out all right’. So modest.

If you missed the show tonight at the Brass Rail, your next few changes are:

July 24th – Bentley’s Pub (Champaign)
August 6th – The Iron Post (Urbana)

Following Faster forward Lonely Trailer took the stage and I must admit – I was a Lonely Trailer virgin. These guys are crazy cool. A mix of surf, funk, rock, and a tiny tinge of pop- these guys are sure not to disappoint. The singer/drummer is very intense complimented by both a very talented bass & guitar players and a unique sounding vox key (organ?) player.

Check these guys out if you’re even remotely into the surf sound:
