White Denim

White Denim

With a rigorous tour schedule that’s selling tickets across the US, Australia and the UK, Texan rockers White Denim are bringing their unique sound to audiences around the world. A live concert really is the best way to see them, because they’re a jam band that knows how to play to a crowd, with heavy guitar-based garage rock mixed with jazzy prog-rock interludes that show off their considerable guitar skill. They can bring it in for rootsy acoustic ballads or open things up for heavy blues rock show-stoppers. They've drawn comparisons to a wide variety of bands, including The Grateful Dead, Blue Oyster Cult, Thin Lizzy, The Black Keys, and especially Wilco.

Great set, non stop music. really tight performance. After seeing White Denim six times this was the first time with their new line up. Very interesting to see how they did the old songs without two guitars.

This was the second time I saw White Denim on this tour. Once in Philadelphia in April and this show at The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ. First of all let me say, I love this band, I love their music, I have all their albums and have been into them for a few years now. I was a little disappointed at this show, however. The opening act (Gods) was a bit unoriginal and although musically they were solid, they didn't belong on the same bill as White Denim. So this started the night out on the wrong foot for me. In April, White Denim had a second guitar player and a different drummer. While the drummer change didn't seem to make a difference, the lack of the second guitar player really did. The band also seemed like they were a whole lot less energetic than they were in April and this show sounded like a cover band of the show I saw in Philadelphia. Everyone has an off day, oh well. Now all this being said, I would still go and see White Denim again, second guitar player or not. As far as the Stone Pony being so exalted, on par with other places of similar character, it is only just average at best. There are worse places to go, but then again, there definitely are better. Given another act that I like coming to play there, I would probably skip it for another venue unless I had some other reason to be down there.

Went into the show with a tiny bit of hesitation due to the recent lineup change and unfortunately my fears came true. The guys just didn't have the energy I saw in thier last 3 outings. James seemed like he was going through the motions and the new guitar player isn't even close to holding the stage prescence and his guitar chops pale im comparison to Austins. Maybe James and Steve are still trying to get over Austin and Josh splitting; I don't know. What I do know is that the White Denim who puts on THE most energetic and guitar noodly amazement was not present @ this show.

Very good show! White Denim are very talented musicians and I saw them for the very first time. Unfortunately they had to stop only after playing for 1/2 hour because the fire alarm was someway somehow triggered and all the people had to leave the venue first. People were let in again after the fire fighters had checked the complete venue.

Terrific show at a very small venue. I had no idea that these guys were so tight. Their lead singer James Petralli is incredibly talented.

This show was unforgettable. These giants were merely walking the Earth and jamming and it was an honor to witness it.

I've only been into White Denim for a few years, but having seen them live...all of the cds now open up quite a bit. My wife and friends see alot of shows regularily and have been concert-goers since the 1970s. White Denim is one of the most impressive, dynamic, satisfying events I have ever witnessed. I am most often friendly and favorable to the bands I see but this is the first time i've ever been moved to provide feedback. This band has yet to surpass the cult following and they very much deserve to. Hopefully seeing them live will turn more people on to thier cds. Fans of art/progressive rock, southern jam bands and ridiculously tight musicmanship will not be disappointed.

White Denim is amazing. They are captivating on stage, and their skills are out of this world! Great to see them live... I would LOVE to see them at a music festival. That to me would be the perfect setting to see them and really enjoy it. It was pretty loud for this small of a venue. The mixing seemed a little off... the balance was iffy. But bottom line, I would see them again in a heartbeat!

Played an awesome 2hr show. Saw them perform at Bowery ballroom, which is a bad ass venue. It's a smaller venue so the acoustics are amazing.

My first time seeing White Denim live and definitely NOT my last!! It felt like they had a jam session in their house and we were the honored house guests. Kick-ass!!

Though I was a little bummed that they didn't play many songs from their older album "Last Day of Summer", I was thoroughly impressed by the amount of skill that these musicians possessed. The riffs were extremely catchy and it was impossible not to feel moved by the music. I was also impressed by the obvious chemistry between the group. They seemed like they were genuinely excited to share their music between themselves and the audience.

White Denim are one of THE best live bands you will ever see, and they proved it once again on Saturday at the Bowery Ballroom. It was my 3rd time seeing them live and I'll see them every time they come to NY. DO NOT miss this band if they come to your town. Such a cool down to earth friendly bunch of guys who are really appreciative of their fans. Search them out before the show and they're more than happy to chat...

I went to this event to see The Static Jacks. I've seen them several times before & have been following them since they formed. The were great, as always! They played several new songs from their forthcoming album (they recently got signed to Fearless Records). "Defend Rosie", "Girl Parts", & "Into the Sun" were fantastic. "My Parents Lied" was also great. An excellent show, I look forward to seeing them again & highly recommend that you check out their music and see them live if the opportunity arises.
