GIANT TIGER: Unreleased EP Download!

July 25, 2011 1 Comment

Giant Tiger was a local Chattanooga band who still sit near and dear to our hearts. The band ended over 2 years ago, somewhere around their last show in June 2009. During their short career as Giant Tiger, the band had recorded some great music and performed one of the best live shows at the time. Their only release, the 7-song EP ‘Me. We,’ printed on pink 10″ vinyl, still rocks our stereo on a monthly basis…

But right before their break up, Giant Tiger were in the process of releasing a 4-song EP titled ‘Feelin Weird,’ that was mixed, mastered and ready to go. Other than a song uploaded to their myspace page, this EP has never seen the light of day… UNTIL NOW!

For a limited time and exclusively from The South Rail, stream/download the 4-song EP, ‘Feelin’ Weird’ below, courtesy of Young Monster/Giant Tiger:

We know, it’s such a tease to hear killer tunes you can’t see preformed live anymore, but since the break-up, Giant Tiger can now be seen in different forms: Posters/Clothing/Record Label Young Monster and bands: Fastboys, Tony Wayne and the Chain, Black Painter, Mocknbird, Night of the Wolf, The Bohannons…

Long live the music of Giant Tiger, one of our favorite bands:

The Weeks! Live tonight!

Come out to JJ’s Bohemia TONIGHT to watch The Weeks up close and personal… this will probably be one of the last times to see them perform at arm’s reach.

This southern rock-garage/indie band originated in Jackson, Mississippi and is now calling Nashville, TN their home. Pulling the sounds of southern-blues, rock-n-roll and old-school country together to develop a dominant sound of genre infusion. We can see very large venues in this band’s future.

The Weeks w/ Faretheewell & Behold the Brave
Tickets: $6
JJ’s Bohemia

Not familiar? Well, see below and stream tracks from The Week’s bandcamp HERE… oh, and SEE YOU TONIGHT!!:
