Spinning Wheels

I haven’t exactly been keeping up my end of the bargain as far as helping out all the little guys out there who’ve been sending me their music, which is something I usually take a lot of pride in. So, today I’m going to highlight one of those bands.
Nick from Spinning Wheels emailed me a while back and his email got buried unfortunately. Well, the other day I was sifting through those emails and came across his email for his band Spinning Wheels. They’re signed to Aviation Records and their album The Great Outdoors is out, or is about to come out soon. Not sure exactly. Their sound is kind of similar to early Tim Kinsella projects like American Football, with mellow, calculated melody lines that weave in and out of each other. I actually hear a lot of similarities to Emperor X, who has that similar vocal sound and DIY style. That band may be way under most of your radars, but look him up, it’s good stuff.
There’s not much else to say, as I really don’t know much about Spinning Wheels, but I figured I’d give Nick and his band a mention on here since he contacted me and I enjoyed the couple songs he sent me. Head over to their myspace and shoot him a message if you like their stuff. I’m sure they’ll more than appreciate it.
