Description
A Northwest band known for their distinctive lyrics, striking female vocal harmonies and tight bass/guitar/drums/keys lineup, The Ditty Twisters pull out all the stops on their raucous sophomore release, Piata Baby. Called "one of Po-Town's most original outfits" by Willamette Week, the band continues to break new ground as they gradually move away from the punkabilly swamp sound that characterized their first album. With a harder, more bass-inflected vibe, Piata Baby delivers relentless rhythms and deceptively simple pop tune hooks.
Produced by Joe Chiccarelli (Frank Zappa, Oingo Boingo, Tori Amos), Piata Baby resulted from the crucible of creativity that was formed when the band experienced several life-changing events over the past year, including separation, marriage, death, and, of course, the addition of a new guitarist who likes to play in overdrive. The album's sweet melodies and bitter lyrics yield the results of some of life's harder lessons, such as what happens when a boy wants to be queen of the rodeo, or what may result from a bitter argument with the devil himself.
If you can see them live, do so. Now. But if you can't, just buy a CD, sit back with a delicious adult beverage, and drink in the hot licks and warm harmonies.
"High-livin', beer-drinkin' music with striking female vocals and a sharp-ass sense of humor."
-Willamette Week
"Funny bands are rare, and often are written off as mere novelty. The Ditty Twisters are the rarest of all: way funny and truly rocking..."
-The Oregonian
