The Gay Blades to tour with Kiss Kiss

The Gay Blades will be hitting the road with close friends Kiss Kiss for a Northeast run of dates later this month in an effort aptly titled The Recession Procession. The band has been all over the NYC circuit lately playing with acts from all over the musical landscape; Scott Weiland, Men, Women & Children, and The Honorary Title among others. Their debut album Ghosts is out now on 4Never // Triple Crown Records and features the stand out track "O Shot" for which the band just filmed a brand new video. Look for The Gay Blades as a featured band in an upcoming February issue the of UK's indie rock bible NME!

The Gay Blades are a two piece from New York City and play an acerbic brand of Trash Pop. What is Trash Pop, you ask? Trash pop is what happens when two keenly observant wannabe hipsters write and record songs the same pair couldn't possibly pull off live, and make up for their missing bass player with consistent TNT like performances and a heaping spoonful of swagger. Clark Westfield plays the guitar and Puppy Mills plays the drums.
