((Tarantula)) Band Profile and Upcoming New York City Concerts - Oh My Rockness

Tarantula are an under-the-radar NYC band that have been amazing even the most jaded crowds with their eclectic hybrid of indie rock, classical and jazz that goes from beautiful to powerful in mere seconds.

The four-piece is comprised of cello, drums, violin and bass, but the band is so tight that all sounds seem to effortlessly float into one. Their drummer also plays for the wonderful dance-punk band The Flesh and the cellist appeared on Elefant's Gallery Girl EP. Perhaps a comparison to Godspeed could be made, but really Tarantula seem to be from another time and another place, perhaps a Parisian caf in the 1940's. All the talk is that this band is special.
