"I heard a rumor, what have they done to her." (Arabian Knights, Siouxie And The Banshees, single released 7/28/81 Polydor Records U.K.)
No rumors about it, due to a big move, which I'm still in the early stages of, and a few health checkups, Local Loft returns after a month breather. I wing it over to the biggest Summer music extravaganza, Merchant Street Music Fest for the awesome psychedelic free form alternative jam band Mothpoint. The four piece Kankakee band lit up and tore up the hill stage for the first of the two-day Summer music showcase, which featured superb sets by familiar names Carrying Torches and Lever, the second coming of grunge.
I talk with singer Guitarist Lupe Carrol, who has drawn many to groove along to his solo acoustic sets at the Kankakee Farmers Market. Bassist Keegan McMaster and Lupe talk with me about how their mostly instrumental sound has wowed many young and old followers, as Mothpoint works on a follow up full length album to thier 2024 debut songs.
