Batwings Catwings - Radio

Batwings Catwings is fronted by the tiny, yet fierce dance commander Dana Poblete, an everygirl with the ability to entrance audiences from Los Angeles to the hell mouths of Mexico’s border towns with her frenetic energy and deceptively powerful howl. Backing her is guitarist Ray Santillan, a master of the squelch who wields his axe and sequencers with the devastating accuracy. On the drums is L.A. blogger Clay Johnson, who cut his teeth drumming for about every metal band on the northern Midwest’s arctic front. Josh Crampton rounds out the lineup on bass, diversifying the sound even further with his smoothness and shoegaze influences. After their hugely successful first EP "Peacock Collection" from earlier in 2011 and a bangin official showcase at SXSW they are primed for another release October 24, 2011 on Gravy Records from Norwich.  It will be their first 7", which will be named 'Radio'. They recorded again at L.A.’s hot spot Infrasonic Studios (No Age, Best Coast, Fools Gold, Abe Vigoda, Wavves) by Eric Nordhauser.  With a tinge of sarcasm, they are self-proclaimed as "modernist punk" – noisy as hell with a tinge of pop and a nod to the punk rock roots of the L.A. underground bands they love so much.
