Add Deleted Scenes Tour Dates To Calendar
Washington D.C. has been doing quite dandy for the past few months. Yes, the local economy is one of the only places in the country expected to create jobs this year, but no, we don’t concern ourselves with that on MUF. Part of the D.C. bright spot we care about comes in the form of Deleted Scenes.
In fact, the foursome of Dan Scheuerman (vocals/guitar), Matt Dowling (bass/keyboard), Chris Scheffey (guitar) and Brian Hospital (drums), released their first full-length album, Birdseed Shirt, in early January. With the aiding talent of Eldridge Skell (The Rude Staircase) and an enclosed lifestyle during the recording process, Deleted Scenes compiled what is really several distinct styles into this 11-track album. These varying styles become evident as a fast-paced new wave indie comes across on one song and a melodic rock powers forward on another. Many albums can’t handle this cross-genre pollination, but rest assured that Deleted Scenes makes it work.
Tour dates and some mp3s from Birdseed Shirt are below. Note that they will be playing with The Pains of Being Pure at Heart and Au Revoir Simone for a couple of the dates. Also, the five-stop Metro music video for “One Long Country Song” is below. We wish the vocals were clearer, but it still works quite nicely.
