[ATTENDED: February 29, 2020] Slaughter Beach, Dog
I had heard, vaguely, of Slaughter Beach, Dog but I didn’t know anything about them. So I was really surprised that a band with a name like that wound up playing quiet folky music.
The band was a three piece, but aside from singer guitarist Jake Ewald, I don’t know who else was on stage.
I found out after the show that Ewald was previously the singer/guitarist for Modern Baseball, a band I’d heard of but didn’t know. I also read that Ian Farmer, bassist for Modern Baseball played on the latest Slaughter Beach, Dog album. But I’m not sure if that was him on stage.
So they came out on stage, and Jake Ewald was soft spoken and funny. Had I known he had been a front man for so long, I wouldn’t have assumed he seemed a little nervous or shy up there. Perhaps that’s just the persona for Slaughter Beach, Dog (I have no idea what he was like for Modern Baseball).
They played about seven or eight or ten songs. (more…)
