Voxhaul Broadcast gave their LA legion plenty to shout about on Wednesday night, January 11th, as night #7 of Satellite Nights was a rousing success. It’s quite a thank you from a venue to its patrons to host nine straight nights of free music! And I stayed away from the bar, so it really was a free night, even though all had fun whether they were imbibing or not!
Any doubts I harbored of Voxhaul sinking into the quicksand of anonymity vanished about four measures into their set. They’re a good band prima facie, as they say in the legal profession (upon first glance, literally ‘first face’). Three generations of music snobs could be in a restaurant, hear this band play over Sirius XM and all have the same immediate impression: “This is good shit!” During a brief, approaching half-hour set, the band knocked out “Cheetah” and “Leaving on the 5th”, both from the Timing is Everything LP, along with “Broken Nerve”, from their Between Love and War digital EP. Voxhaul Broadcast’s contrasting styles of bluesy, roots rock and Springsteen-esque indie were in harmony throughout. My only gripe is that it was difficult to move around on Wednesday night, so you’d better get there early when Voxhaul hosts the Satellite residency every Monday in March.
