About Junebug Spade
File under: Stoner-pop, party-rock... Junebug Spade, a quirky line-up of musicians who grew up enveloped in Oklahoma City's rabid, experimental music scene, are known more for their off-beat musical sensibilities than for conventional indie aesthetic. Their self-titled EP--their first release--has found them national and local attention, and was recorded at Bell Labs (home of indie producer and former Chainsaw Kittens guitarist, Trent Bell). The six rock tunes blend the cynical enthusiasm of the Kinks and Built to Spill with classic Jagger/Richards riffs. Junebug Spade have been featured in Oklahoma Magazine (Dec.'09), on the front page of CD Baby, and on the 2009 Homegroan CD (104.5 the Edge/Tulsa) for the single "BUCKSHOT". Oklahoma City has also given the band opportunities to play New Year’s Eve “Opening Night” slot, and three years running have packed the main stage slot at the OKC Arts Festival, also playing Momentum, Dfest (in Tulsa), Twilight Concert Series, and of course playing the rapidly growing Norman Music Festival two years in a row. Also, they had the opportunity to do the Chevy Bricktown Showcase Season 2. Junebug Spade finished their second EP, Fashion and Fame, where they returned to Bell Labs Studio with the intention of maintaining creative progression, and pushing things forward stylistically. The five song EP will be was released May 2010 and its sound has been compared to that of raindrops on a hot tin roof. They are currently working on their third EP with Bretthouse Productions which is to be released summer 2011.
