Rochester's Cheetah Whores Drop New Retro Flavored Tunes


Earlier this week, Rochester's Cheetah Whores released a couple new tracks on their bandcamp page. The band looks to have formed sometime around the summer of 2010, but this is the first I have heard of them. The crisp, retro sound (a little surf, a little psych, a little garage) of the two tracks is well produced. "Love is Dolls in a Lost Land," has a bluesy swagger, while the second track, "Oh Vivian," is lead by a great rockabilly riff. Now I am no expert in retro 60s rock, but the tunes sound like a mix of early Dum Dum Girls meets Nancy Sinatra (better comparisons are welcome), with vocals that could range anywhere from Stevie Nicks to even Grace Potter. A band like this is exactly what Buffalo is lacking. While some all female, or mostly female groups, have emerged recently, including Sexist, Cross Stitch, and Fleshy Mounds, there is definitely room for more acts like this. Check out "Oh Vivian" below.
