When the holiday season has come and gone, and the gifts have been bought and opened, will you feel good that you supported the local artists? So many times, when we think of gifts that are made right here in Buffalo, we tend to overlook the musicians who also need to make a few bucks. That’s why I’m sending you over to Spiral Scratch Records in order to pick up some locally made music. I stopped in on Friday to talk to owner David Palumbo who gave me the short-list of bands and their CDs, vinyl and even tapes.
We must not forget about the music lovers when we’re shopping this season. In no particular order, here are just a few band choices that David picked out for BRO readers – local labels as well (Feral Kid Records, One Percent Press, Peter Walkee Records). Be sure to stop in, and David will help to guide you toward the perfect picks for friends and family.
1) Everything Falls Apart (LP)
2) Patrons of Sweet (CD)
3) Iceberg (CD)
4) Mayday (7″)
5) Chosen Ones (7″)
6) White Whale (7″)
7) Coworkers | Inerds (7″)
8) Brown Sugar (Cassette)
