The Revelons- Hip Pop

Independent EP
Roll's Quick Pick 3

From 1978 to 1983, the Revelons were a New York City club mainstay, filling in for cancellations at CBGB and working Max’s Kansas City and the Mudd Club. 20 years after disbanding (in ’83), singer/guitarist Gregory Lee Pickard and guitarist (and Bearsville resident) Mark Suall reunited for a compilation CD, and decided to keep the brand going. This new EP starts with “Ave Maria,” blending NYC punk/new wave with the classical original and “The Girl From Ipanema,” and proceeds to the anti-Beatle “I Don’t Wanna Hold Your Hand,” and the distorto-cowboy “Satin & Steel.” If pop can possibly be hip, this represents thusly. www.revelons.com
