As my bestie describes Kerretta , they’re not as mellow as Mogwai and not quite as heavy as Isis. They’re somewhere in the middle meaning in the broad musical spectrum, they’re almost perfect. Truly an instrumental band like no other, Kerretta’s currently available albums Vilayer and Saansilo will hit you like no other. Bassist William Waters recently took some time to speak with The Blerd13 via email and introduce us to the (Soon-to-be) phenom that is Kerretta : 1. […]

The Blerd13 with…Kid Is Qual!
Now veterans of Popblerd’s annual “ I Read AP’s 100 Bands You Need To Know In 2012 So You Don’t Have To .” post, Kid Is Qual’s Lead bassist and resident Talk Boxer Jonathan Sullivan was gracious enough to sit down with us and talk all things Qual. Here’s what he had to say: 1. Going from Jack’s Mannequin to this is quite a stretch stylistically. Was electronic music something you were always interested in? To answer your question, not really. I wanted to do an analog electronic band. I mean, I feel like if a song is […]
The Blerd13 with…Tom Devaney of Rotary Club!
Are you a fan of Betwixt or Bulkhead? Well then have you checked out Tom Devaney’s latest musical outing as Rotary Club? No? For shame is all I have to say. For. Shame. Anyway, their just released sophomore album Second Year In Swine is a great throwback to ’90’s alt-rock (Pavement comes to mind immediately) with some modern day twists and twang that’s refreshing in a time where most bands fail to stand out from the rest. Recently, Devaney […]

The Blerd13 with…Raine Maida!
The Blerd13 is off to a great 2012 (With lots more lined up really soon…)! That said, we are humbled to present our second Q & A of 2012 with Our Lady Peace’s Raine Maida. Mr. Maida recently took the time out of recording Our Lady Peace’s eight studio album, Curve (due on April 17th), to speak with us by phone from L.A. Here’s what he had to say: 1. Can you tell us a little about the new Our […]
The Blerd13 with…BLACK TAXI!
It’s the latest (And last Blerd13 of 2011) so we’re gonna do you a solid and present the must know band of 2012. They are BLACK TAXI and their sophomore record, We Don’t Know Any Better, is out in just a few short weeks (January 14th) and is the perfect album to redeem all those Itunes/Amazon gift cards you’ll accumulate when Santa comes to town. But don’t let me talk at you, read on as the members of BLACK TAXI […]
The Blerd13 with…Justin Warfield of She Wants Revenge!
New column alert! New column alert! Welcome to the Blerd13, our (new) little slice of Q & A heaven. For our grand gala premiere event we have Justin Warfield, frontman for She Wants Revenge who chats all things SWR, the possibilities of a My Field Trip To Planet 9 follow-up, and what’s taboo on Twitter. 1. Valleyheart feels like a John Hughes (In a good way, obviously) movie. What kind of mood were you trying to set? Thanks, that’s amazing. […]
