434 - Peter Holsapple - New Album, The Face of 68, produced by Don Dixon
Peter Holsapple was a founding member of the influential power pop band, the dB’s, whose quirky, hook-laden songs garnered critical acclaim, but little commercial success. Yet, now the band’s albums are considered classics. Holsapple also spent time in the alternative supergroup, the Continental Drifters, and was a touring musician for both R.E.M. and Hootie & the Blowfish during their 90’s heydays.
Lately, he’s been playing lead guitar in The Paranoid Style - and perhaps as a result, his latest solo album is the most rockin’ thing he’s ever done - The Face of 68 sees Holsapple fronting a power trio, with Robert Sledge of Ben Folds Five on bass, and Rob Ladd of the Connells on drums. He’s also joined by old friend Don Dixon, who produced the album.
