Live From The Unabashed Recesses Of The Pop Psyche

Tonight we celebrate a POP Goes The World coup!About 8 months ago, I saw Zac Hryciak & The Jungle Beat play at The Camel. I immediately fell in love with their brand of exceptionally executed chamber pop.About 3 months ago, I saw Zac's brother, Josh (formerly of Mermaid Skeletons, and currently of Hens) do a solo performance, also at The Camel, that was just a plain hoot!Clearly, something was going on with these boys.I intended to find out!After 8 months, I was finally able to wrangle them all to play on the same show.So tonight, we explore the unabashed recesses of the pop psyches of Zac Hryciak & The Jungle Beat, and Josh Hryciak!Zac Hryciak & The Jungle Beat Bandcamp page
