Ragwater Revue featured in the San Francisco Chronicle Sunday pink entertainment section.
"Imagine an old seedy bar in the 1930s where women adorned in puffy mink shawls smoke using long Cruella DeVille-like cigarette extenders and dark-haired men in suits slowly tap their feet to some jazzy blues. Ragwater Revue would be the band on the stage."
"With songs that tell wild tales of alligator babies, glass eyes, and cemeteries, Ragwater Revue envelopes its listeners in a prohibition-era haze. The dirty blues band, who incorporate hints of rockabilly and jazz, is brand-spankin'-new to San Francisco, having just moved from Kansas City, Mo., last January. Songstress Lady Viola's gramophonelike vocal stylings fit perfectly with Kris Daniel's sleepy guitar work." "...your tunes sound great...the singer (Lady Viola) is reminscent of Billie Holiday...Also Danielle Dax, and Holly Golightly." RAGWATER REVUE'S SONGS HAVE BEEN FEATURED ON THE FOLLOWING RADIO STATIONS: WFMU, KVRX, KZSU, KWVA, KJHK, KDVS, and KALX. Ragwater Revue has performed live sets on both KDVS and KALX radio. |
