It was a cool night with the Dead Trees at El Corazon, accompanied by a good sound and good people.

I’d never heard of the band before, so I was expecting a different sound: let’s just say I was happy with what they offered. They had a nice, up-beat folk sound and a great stage presence. I really like seeing bands multi-task with different instruments. Their bass player had a maraca at one point, the guitar player went back and forth to his keyboard, and the drummer was singing back-up throughout parts of the show. I certainly wouldn’t mind seeing them again when the time comes. I think you’d like it too, if you’re into that kind of stuff.

“Mindkilla” is awesome. I’ve got this music video last week and really impressed through watching every performance particularly “Glass Jar”. Thanks dude. :)
