Velvet Davenport

Velvet Davenport are an interestingly weirdo, backward-glancing psychedelic Minneapolis sextet who, judging from their bloody Happy Ending album art, don’t mind conjuring the Dwarves and/or Mudhoney even though sonically they’re more in line with warping Strawberry Alarm Clock or the Seeds or the Yardbirds or whatever. Right, maybe the similarities are coincidental (and/or acid induced), but what’s not is their recent “Get Out” collaboration with aesthetic brethren LA burnout Ariel Pink and onetime Ariel Pink band member/current Brooklyn resident Gary War. The happening was captured via an 8-track in War’s apartment. Pink and War lend their voices and various instruments(stereogun).
