About Me |
|
From the sun-kissed shores of San Diego, CA comes Red Pony Clock, an ever-shifting musical collective with a penchant for jubilant horn arrangements, effervescent vocal harmonies, and confessional song-writing. Primarily a recording project based on the songs of Gabe Saucedo & Tony Prudhome; the live Red Pony Clock lineup can oftentimes swell into the the double digits, with members switching back and forth between a wide variety of non-traditional instruments, such as trombone, banjo, accordion, & vibraphone. RPC will pretty much try to work with whatever they can get their hands on. The same goes for their song-writing, which has been known to take from such diverse influences as mariachi, disco, country, jazz, & R&B. At first listen, the density of Red Pony Clock's music can be overwhelming, even confounding. But take heart!! While most twelve-headed monsters are intent on luring you under your bed only to inflict unspeakable acts of torture, Red Pony Clock would rather help you build a pillow fort in which to chill out and have a sing-along. Or better yet, a jamboree!!! Over the course of 6 years, Red Pony Clock has gone from being a one-man lo-fi recording project to the incalculable, cult-like assemblage of today, sporadically releasing their music on 7" records, cassettes, and hand-decorated CDRs. Their latest release, God Made Dirt (HHBTM records), marks RPC's first foray into professional studio recording. With the help of their old friend, Roy Silverstein at Habitat Studios, Red Pony Clock has finally made the record they've been trying to make since they started. It's a boundlessly sprawling work, made to be absorbed as a whole, and brimming with the spirit of a band who makes music only because they love it more than anything else in the world. Buy our new CD, "God Made Dirt" at HHBTM.com!!! Lost Sound Tapes just released a recording of our ultra rare, all acoustic, microphoneless performance at a thousand oaks park last year!!! Check it::: It's a tape, dudes!!! Buy our last CD, "Tunes From Terrace Towers" at Asaurus.org!!! Booker dudes: here's a list of bands we've played with: Architecture in Helsinki, Of Montreal, Apples in Stereo, Elf Power, Mt Erie, Daniel Johnston, Persephones Bees, The Brunettes, Dr Dog, Dirty Projectors, Half-Handed Cloud, Essex Green, Castanets, Irving, Yacht, His Name is Alive, Deerhoof, The Blow, Scout Niblett, Herman Dune, The Instruments, Thanksgiving, Octopus Project, Ladybug Transistor, blah blah blah ... etc etc etc ... you get it. Check out the video for "My New Best Friends", made by Sean Gillane, Isaiah Leggett, & our own Gerry Saucedo!!! It's burrito-riffic!!! Here's a video made by our dear friend, Omar De Leon. It's for our first song ever, "The Day I Became my Lawn". Yowzers!!! This guy's GOOD!!! |

I proclaim it (God Made Dirt) to be one of the most fascinating albums of the year and highly recommend it to anyone that wants to have their mind blown. And even if the rickety, sometimes shambolic sound of Red Pony Clock puts you off at first, just remember the following: the best rock and roll albums of all time all sound as if they’re gonna fall apart at any second. And by those standards, God Made Dirt is up there with fucking Exile On Main Street, my friends." - retrolofi.com _________________________ "With lovely vocal harmonies, sensitively intelligent lyrics and breathtaking orchestral musical arrangements, God Made Dirt is classic Red Pony Clock and one of the best records out of the indie pop movement." - Cairnmag.com _________________________ Clarinet and xylophone-driven vaudeville-a-delic joy-pop, seething with the eternal teenage spirit - close to too much fun _________________________ "high school concert band gone nicely wrong." -riverfront times _________________________ "the band shambles through storybook melodies with so much gusto they end up sounding like drinking songs for the kindergarten set." - sfbg.com _________________________ "They combine the sheer melodicism of Swedish pop with cowpoke 'shroom fests and drunken, hazy strolls across rolling boat decks" - Splendid E-zine _________________________ "A treat if Edward Lear and Alice in Wonderland absurdities are your bag. A very odd treat." - Losing Today UK _________________________ Red Pony Clock does beguiling junk-folk, like a big-band version of New York's short-lived anti-folk movement...where Calexico and off-key lounge music intersect to form a charming, mellow mutant. - SD City Beat _________________________ "OK, so let's say that Brian Wilson, in his most delirious and detached stage, set out on a journey to a fantastical tropical island in a multicolored jalopy and along the way picked up a bunch of young hitchhikers from a broken-down bus headed to a "special needs" musical academy." "Imagine, perhaps, a group of high school drama kids who dropped acid and got locked in the school music room." - Doug Wagner, SignOnSanDiego _________________________ "Red Pony Clock has to be seen to be believed". - Onion AV Club Record Label: Happy Happy Birthday To Me + Asaurus Type of Label: Indie |
