Brabrabra is a 3 piece band from Berlin, Germany. "Danger! Danger! Danger!" is their first release in 6 years and 9 years since their "Mango" cassette. All of their releases have come via Kitchen Leg Records. However, I should remind you that Oakland based label Absolutely Kosher has released "Mango" and the 7" "Lagoona" as "Mangoona" on LP.

We first posted about Brabrabra back in 2015, and honestly, "Mango" has provided me with so much enjoyment since then. I've already listened to "Danger! Danger! Danger!" three times through. It immediately calls to mind bands like Electrelane and Look Blue Go Purple. The new album is less minimal than their earlier work, but I think mentioning Young Marble Giants and Deep Time is still a good idea.

Being very selective about gigs lately but despite being fatigued I made an exception for Memorials. Still making up for the times that  I never got to see Electrelane.  Verity Susman (Electrelane) & Matthew Simms (Wire) gave us a superlong set with Moogs, pop songs and  experimental tape loops.  I think this is the only band I've seen where the drummer plays the drums and guitar at the same time.

I'm going to guess that The Garrys don't sound like any other band ever to come out of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. They sound like a combination of 60s girl band with surf music. In fact, in the Bandcamp notes for "Get Thee to a Nunnery", their style is described as a combination of "The Ventures, the drama of Ennio Morricone’s spaghetti westerns, the dreamy psychedelia of Kurt Vile, France Gall’s brand of mod-pop cheek, and the lo-fi garage noir of Los Saicos."

I would add Electrelane and Barbara Manning to that description.

The Garrys are made of up of the three Maier sisters and they have releases going back to 2015. They have a new single, "Cakewalk" which may signal a new release in the future.

"Get Thee to a Nunnery" and many of their other releases are through Saskatoon label Grey Records (the label has also released work from Shirley & The Pyramids).
