Flagpole Magazine: Colorbearer of Athens, GA Assessing the Consequences

UpstartRoundup

Introducing Athens' Newest Talent

Nov 5, 2008

The Desarios

Rock and Roll

Lineup
Cory Jasin, Alston Causey, Charlie McKenzie, Pete "Pops" Lanzarone.
Influences
The Beatles, Rooney, The Strokes, The Cars, The Zombies, Misfits, Buzzcocks, etc.

The Desarios may have been rocking Atlanta since 2004, but the group is new to Athens. As is often the case, collegiate studies at UGA pulled the group up from the big A, and we should be pleased to have 'em. What do you call that dance move where you pinch your nose and throw your arm up in the air like you're diving under water? That's what The Desarios make me want to do. Their retro-tastic sounds feel like a dance party in a playful '60s teen movie. Shake and clap along at www.myspace.com/thedesarios.
