Sweet Tooth Used to Live In Ocean Beach. Sweet Tooth Currently Rocks.
Since putting out the call yesterday for some National High Five Day inspired music, I've been exposed to some good, bad and if you can imagine an ugly song, probably some of that two What is encouraging is that even on the first day I've stumbled across some stuff I really like, artists whom I would be proud to exchange a high five with.
Most notable is Sweet Tooth, who I found on myspace and who used to live in Ocean Beach. Currently rockin' in LA, their guitar driven music sound like a dirtier, harder edge version of the White Stripes or Black Keys fronted by a female singer, Heidi Faith, who can truly wail a la Cassandra, the girlfriend in Wayne's World (that's a compliment.) Any band who boasts a list of influences as diverse as My Morning Jacket, Link Wray, Ricky Gervais and the Traveling Wilburys is doing fine by me. Go listen to their songs Fool's Gold and Hey Hey C'mon on myspace, and stay tuned to San Diego Serenade for info on when they will return to play in San Diego.
