CLIP 1 - I just shared the entire song and it’s on IGTV on our IG page - Okay, I have a lot of warm fuzzies inside when it comes to the frontman of this band; I’m speaking about Nick Pollock @adarkwave - he’s a super cool human and truly one of my most favorite people! So tonight on Seattle Sound Wednesday - I’m share a song from their album “Death Blossom” that came out almost 1 year ago. This is “Inauguration Day” by The National Guard @thenationalguardband - the album is really great and for someone that listens to a ton of new music - Seattle music - it’s an album to get excited about. You can pick it up on streaming platforms like @applemusic or pick it up on their website https://www.thenationalguard.co/ - I have the song “Wheel” on 7” vinyl. Here’s a little more about the band - The National Guard formed in Seattle, Washington. Perhaps imperfectly slotted into the “Rock” category, the band consists of Nick Pollock, guitar (My Sister’s Machine, Soulbender, Tanks Of Zen), Erin Tate, drums (Minus the Bear), Nick Rhinehart, bass (Jerry Cantrell, Bam Bam), and James (Jimmy) Chow, guitar. The band has years of collective experience playing locally, nationally and internationally. As this musical history suggests, there are disparate influences at play, ranging from hard rock and metal to indie rock and alternative rock. Make no mistake, however. The result is focused, tight, and melodic. With their first album, Death Blossom, released on 27 February, 2020, the band is looking forward to a great year of playing live and doing more recording. #nehistripsseattle #nickpollock #nickrhinehart #jameschow #erintate #nationalguardband #theparliment #seattlesoundwednesdays #supportlocalmusicians (at Seattle, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKkvVRRJjzM/?igshid=b3jtvgf02d6w
