With seven institutions of higher education in the triad, Greensboro is brimming with talented musicians. Here we see a photo of a great-sounding group, known as Matty Sheets and the Blockheads, performing at the Tate Street Festival last weekend. They bill themselves as "aquatic garage folk punk country infusion." That's a lot of adjectives. According to their website, they came to be underwater (not unlike Sponge Bob) but have come up for air! Band members include: Matty Sheets, Emily Stewart, Jessica Pennell, Jerrod Smith, Jon Bohlen, & Harrison Barrow (that's a lot of double letters!-- tt, ee x2 ,ss,ll,rr x3). Matty and the Blockheads will be playing at the Green Bean Coffee House tomorrow night (9/30) in case you are local and want a chance to hear them.
This is our contribution to ABC Wednesday. We're stretching it a bit and saying, "K" is for "KUDOS." Hats off to these young musicians!
I'd love to hear them.

Kudos will do very well for a group that can play almost any variety of music there is :-)

I was wondering how you were going to work the K word in. Kudos, and hats off to you. Very ingenious.

I like their description. It seems they don't take themselves too seriously!

Creative.... and good luck to them!
