Deap Vally @ The Regency Ballroom 5/22/2014

The little ladies of Deap Vally brought big Bluesy Rock sounds to The Regency Ballroom when they opened for Band of Skulls last Thursday night.

The L.A. based duo took the stage in S.F looking  like "bandaides" straight out of  Cameron Crowe's Almost Famous;  rockin' a bohemian hodpodge of ruffles, feathers, leather and lace and their sound emulated  the 1970's rock n roll bands of which the movie is based.

Fans cheered as the hard rockin' grunge heard throughout their debut album, Sistrionix roared off the stage, engulfing the room with  raw, yet fun grit.
Ripping massive guitar and pounding heavy drums hit the crowd, leaving them head banging and toe taping along to every outspoken song.
Shouting hardly ceased as the set rolled on and grew louder when Lindsey told fans how happy they were to be back in  SF, showcasing their fun loving wit by adding "it just smells better...if you know what I mean."

The pairing of Lindsey tearing it up on guitar and her deep almost raspy vocal range plus her redheaded counter part, Julie killing it on the drum kit are comparable to the likes of  The White Stripes. Like The Stripes, Deap Vally are  two passionate musicians, playing undisputable garage - blues - rock, making a lot of enjoyable noise and they're damn good at it.
