ON: Ponytail Tonight, Ponytail play their first London gig at Barden's Boudoir. We are expecting a psychedelic spazz-out of epic proportions. Drummer Jeremy Hyman recently told us about the band's plans to follow this year's wonderful Ice Cream Spiritual LP. JH: “Me and Molly [Siegel, the band's vocalist] listen to a lot of techno and dance music and that’s starting to poke through a little more with the newer stuff. We also love Craig Leon. He was a producer for Blondie and Suicide, but also made his own solo electronic records which Ken [Seeno, one of the band's awesome axemen] found recently. We were all blown away. It’s so minimal but, you know, not at all. So we've been influenced by that. And we like a lot of pop too. Fleetwood Mac is one of our favourite ever bands. Just the colour of the sound, it’s never really harsh, which is something we like. There's also going to be some really weird industrial sounding guitars. And it's a bit new wavier. Oh, and we've just finished a song that sounds exactly like The Grateful Dead.” So the new Ponytail record will sound like minimal 80s techno with Fleetwood Mac's lightness of touch, industrial guitars and a new wave take on The Grateful Dead.
