With a lyrical penance to Replacements mastermind Paul Westerberg, and a guitar-led scrum that harkens back to the days of the Dolls, this downtown quartet has been packing clubs in New York¹s Lower East Side for close to two years now. But you can even ask NYC¹s bums, that¹s what happens when the music is perfectly sloppy, and dangerously unhinged. So, as the story goes, on the strength of their self-released, dirty dusty Texas-produced Don¹t You Dare EP, and one hell of a live show, the Reckless Sons stopped the Gotham rock scene dead in its tracks, forcing an entire city to take notice of their garage-y nuggets and punch-drunk rock n roll. Next thing you know? London calling, as the Sons embarked on a month-long tour of Britain, which culminated in a main-stage appearance at Brighton¹s Beachdown festival. Produced in deep Brooklyn by Ben Rice (The Mooney Suzuki and Change The Station), their latest Everybody Knows EP is scheduled for a May bow. With all that said, Reckless Sons are gearing up for their busiest year yet, which kicks off in style at the old CBGB¹s space in Manhattan ­ what fashionistas likely know as the John Varvatos Store.
