About Burrowss
Burrowss is Emily Keefauver (vocals, keys), Matt Stuttler (vocals, guitar, organ), Bryan Perry (bass), and Jesse Kornhardt (drums). Burrowss is based out of the Tower Grove neighborhood in south Saint Louis. Their most recent release "Get Scary" in July 2013 was recorded in the band's basement. Influences range from classic punk to 60s pop. "For the six-song Get Scary EP, the band sharpens its focus on hyper and poppy garage rock" - Christian Schaeffer, Riverfront Times http://www.riverfronttimes.com/2013-07-11/music/burrowss/ Their debut album "Don't Take It Slow" was released in May 2012. The album was recorded by Louis Wall (Jumbling Towers, Volcanoes) at the Texas Room. The album was mastered by Carl Saff (Water Liars, Bass Drum of Death). "For Don't Take It Slow, Burrowss tries on a host of rock & roll styles without settling on a single sound, which makes the record sound alternately adventurous and bipolar." - Christian Schaeffer, Riverfront Times http://blogs.riverfronttimes.com/rftmusic/2012/09/burrowss_debut_album_review_stream.php "It's hard to nail down one single thing about this record that makes it so good. Not because it doesn't exist, because it does, but because it somehow takes in all of indie rock past and present and crams it into 30 minutes of a near-perfect EP. There's a '90s-leaning aesthetic that works in their favor: The burly "Cut Your Film" with its driving guitar calls to mind Guided by Voices, as does their fuzzed-out vocals on the title track. It's lean, sloppy fun that sounds like it was recorded in a weekend on a whim and a prayer. The resulting feeling is like catching the band live, which one can assume was their goal." Jason Robinson, host of the Mixtape 88.1 KDHX - Top 10 Local Albums 2012 http://kdhx.org/music/news/best-of-2012-the-mixtapes-top-10-albums-local-edition "As soon as the crowd settled in to the heavy distortion and hard-hitting snare of set-opener "Cut Your Film," the song was already sliding into the title track of their album, "Don't Take It Slow," which could be called a beachy '60s throwback, provided Brian Wilson traded in his four-part harmonies for an angry-sounding synth." - Tara Wepking, KDHX - August 3rd, 2012 - Heavy Anchor, St. Louis http://kdhx.org/music/reviews/concert-review-burrowss-and-the-ghost-wolves-turn-up-at-the-heavy-anchor-friday-august-3 "Burrowss kicked off the night with an energetic "Top of the Pops," which got the crowd gyrating from the first power chords."
