Band of the Week: Everest

It's true that people like throwing around the term "super group" pretty loosely, but when an LA act is comprised of former/current members of Earlimart, alaska!, Slydell, Folk Implosion, and Great Northern, it's fairly understandable.

Add to that the fact that Neil Young has the group listed in his top eight on myspace, and you can safely assume that said people are talking about this new rock act with good reason.

You'd be hard pressed to find MP3s from the group, but you can hear four tracks on their myspace page and pick up their limited edition 45 at Amoeba Music or at one of their next shows, which take place on Tuesday, August 28th at Spaceland with The Watson Twins and Wednesday, September 12th at Bordello with Sally Jaye and Buddy.

Everest is angling for a full length release in early 08.
