Today we bring you PONYSHOW, I needed this jolt of rock like people up North need the Sun…Yeah, my ears..sweet glorious pounding music, magical stuff when it works, and PONYSHOW know how to make it work, can’t wait for more, I see a lot of Bands cross my path in the course of a day, it was the mention of The Von Bondies that slowed me down to give a listen and I’m glad I did. Love it all….
this is from their Soundcloud page bio…
Leann + Jason + Don
formerly of The Von Bondies
Biography
Donny has pale skin and slender, foolish legs. His preferred method of travel is by horseback across the dusky plains. Jason has never touched a drop of water in his life, yet he will sometimes claim otherwise. He can often be found stretched out on the floor, sleeping in a shaft of sunlight, like a cat. The two share a healthy fear of cloven-hooved animals. This fear manifests itself physically in sweaty palms and piteous, uncontrollable mewling. Leann has long, silky hair. When braided, it can suspend a bench upon which six men are sleeping. In the top left drawer of her bedroom bureau lies a small, oaken box. Inside this box is a smaller box, this one carved from hickory and inlaid with human bone. Inside this box is yet another box. No one has ever learned what lies in this last box, perhaps not even she. A more merry trio whirling and dancing upon their musical instruments you will never find.
