The release of their debut album on Southern Lord is still a few months away but as they continue to blow my mind daily I felt the necessity to share! Below is a “article” about the dynamic duo from their local rag: Salt Lake City Weekly. Yup they are from Salt Lake City and their sound is as massive as the mountainous landscape that bred them. NO they arent mormons but thanks for asking….

and better still listen to them completely rip it up on the radio (including a kick ass cover of ZZTops’ “Precious and Grace”)
