David Nance Group, Blunt Bangs, Long Hots, Waltz


Trashy, bombastic and fully loaded with melody, last year’s Peaced and Slightly Pulverized established Omaha, NE guitarist David Nance as one of the garage-rock revival’s most exciting new voices. Owing to Hendrix, the Dead and Memphis late-great Jay Reatard, the record showcased Nance’s sonorous pipes and his band’s Crazy Horse attack. Nance has also been co-signed by Jack White, who invited the David Nance Group to open for him at an Oklahoma date last year and released a recent single, “Meanwhile” b/w “Credit Line,” via his Third Man Records. Joining Nance and crew at Flicker are scuzzy Philly trio Long Hots and locals Blunt Bangs and Waltz.
