If you’re a regular listener to my radio show, then you’re likely familiar with The Allah-Las. San Francisco’s Nick Waterhouse, who produced their 7″and released it via his own Pres Records, turned me on to the band earlier this year; they’ve since become one of my favorite local outfits going. Sounding jangly, fuzzy and not entirely of this time, the fellas are the house band at the Echo every Tuesday this month. It’s free…do check them out.

The Allah-Lahs indeed make this track their own however, with this killer slab-o-wax from Pres Records!
