0 [SHOW PREVIEW]: Overwhelming Colorfast Live Tonight @ Sunset

A New Years Eve hangover is not an option because there is a special show happening tonight.

90's Bay Area alt-rock band Overwhelming Colorfast which features non-other than sometimes Seattle Rock Guy contributor QuitterDan is playing a free show at the Sunset.

OC was founded by Dan's brother Bob Reed, and signed to Relativity Records in the early nineties. Their self-titled debut was produced by Butch Vig and released in 1992. In 1994 they hooked up with Seattle's own Kurt Bloch, to record a great record in "Two Words". I found a copy at Easy Street a few years ago, needless to say I was stoked.

The band was successful through the first half of the nineties touring with the likes of The Ramones, and was hugely popular in the Bay Area. They have played reunion gigs in the past including a two night stint at favorite San Fran venue "Bottom of the Hill" four years ago.

This show will feature the Reed brothers with help from members of The Riffbrokers. Check out more info on OC and listen to some tunes on their myspace.
