This week,
National Public Radio gives its stamp of approval to Norman/Tulsa punk act
Broncho.
Reports NPR in its "
Next" feature: "Broncho crafts sing-along anthems that combine punk and garage-rock. You could make all the likely comparisons to punk bands of the '70s — Ramones, Iggy Pop and The Stooges — or even bring up the new-school garage-rock undertones of The Strokes and The Strange Boys. But that would sell the band short. If anything, it combines the best elements of both genres: raw guitar chords and energy, plus DIY sentiment, but with hi-fi production."
Check out that story,
HERE.
PLUS!!! The band performs
Wednesday night at
Cain's Ballroom with another NPR favorite (and local),
JD McPherson. Read more about that here:
