Soundcheck

White Denim

Like other members of his family, guitarist and singer James Petralli nearly pursued a career in baseball. Instead, he’s hitting home runs as the frontman of White Denim, an Austin, Texas-based rock trio that roars like a hyperactive, artier version of The Stooges. They play live for us.

White Denim perform with Tapes 'N Tapes at the Music Hall of Williamsburg Sat. April 19 at 9pm.

Guys, yoiu may know music upside down and backward, but your fashion savvy is lacking. White jeans are big as ever and are definitely not retro.

You guys have no rhythm, you need a new drummer. And you don’t sound 80’s at all.
