Through persistent text messaging and emails, they found a way to mix and master the songs from a distance, resulting in their first full length. The B.C.B is equipped with state-of-the-art lighting and sound gear to fully entertain venues from 500 to 5000 patrons and are available for any type of occasion. The Blips answered Stewart’s invitation in the affirmative in late-2019, and, by February 2020, the band had written and recorded ten tracks two weeks prior to the COVID-19 pandemic shut down. B.C.B has shared stages with national artist and bands such as Tracy Lawrence, Members of the SuperGroup Alabama, Darryl Worley, Jeff Bates, Jerrod Neimann, & members of Confederate Railroad, just to name a few. The pair picked up - and let go - several musicians over the next couple of years until settling in with a signature 4 piece lineup. This was music meant to seize your gut and move your butt, and when the members of Natural Calamity came across a potent vamp, they held onto it for as long as the band could keep it together.The Brad Cornelius Band was created in 2011 when Brad set out to form his own group, encouraging Tyler Hooper to come along on drums.

Natural Calamity, also Japanese but a bit more focused, often abandoned the mellow grooves of its album 'Peach Head' in favor of space funk so extreme that it overwhelmed tiny singer Wilamma Masir. Though the band accurately re-created tracks such as 'New Music Machine,' 'Clash' and 'Count Five or Six,' it's telling that the biggest applause came when Oyamada leaned into his theremin and coaxed out an eerie rendition of the karaoke classic 'Love Me Tender.'Įlvis Presley, of course, is one of the foremost figures in kitsch, but the cheers could just as likely have resulted from the recognition of a familiar melody in Cornelius' jigsaw puzzle music. Not only did the meticulously synced-up video projection reflect the channel-surfing nature of the songs, but the sight of Oyamada singing in front of all those purloined television images was oddly reminiscent of karaoke. But at the Double Door on Friday night, Oyamada barely exuded any of the charisma or spark one normally expects of a star, even a postmodern prankster, and his band's stilted approach made his experiments in repetition come across as rather cold.
