Wampus Vessel

09/26/05
. (Press Release) Wampus Multimedia announces the release of Vessel, the new CD from Washington, D.C.-based singer-guitarist Alice Despard. Despard's songs are like New York City rock 'n' roll played on an old Harmony acoustic guitar -- like Patti Smith interpreting the work of Neil Young. Despard fuses her intuitive, poetic observations with a warm mysticism, producing sparse, intellectually muscular songs that resemble nothing so much as four-minute pop hymns. Blending the stark realism of the Velvet Underground with the oblique optimism of early R.E.M., they play as fresh and original while touching some of the most sinificant bases in modern rock.[see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
