The new album "Live My Life" by Screaming Mimes promises to deliver the best of this power pop quartets' music on one disc. 18 months in the making, songs range from up tempo full throttle rock and roll ("Wrong"), dynamic ballads "(Prove My Love)" and the unique mix of melodic heavy ska that has been shaking the airwaves for months ("TV"). Love songs, protest songs, tongue in cheek and heart on the sleeve - it's all here for the hearing.

Line up for the night:

The Swarthy Band (From CinWeekly) "The Swarthy Band's sound is reminiscent of '60s pop, with catchy melodies and intelligent lyrics - which is not surprising, considering how much time the members spend listening to the Beatles and the Who. The band's lead singer, known as Swarthy, describes the band's sound simply as "bass, guitar, drums, vocal melody, rock 'n' roll."

Screaming Mimes(From CityBeat) "Power Pop with a brain and a sense of humor (note their name) is the Mimes' calling card. A killer guitar is arc-welded to Dave Storm's playful, thoughtful lyrics, while a powerful rhythm section merrily bangs away. If Alaskan Huskies played music, they'd sound like the Screaming Mimes -- and that's a compliment."

The Whitney Barricklow Band (From CityBeat) "Possessing a triple threat of one of the best singers in town, one of the most amazing bass players you'll ever hear and one of the most rhythmically literate drummers around, The Whitney Barricklow Band is a must-see. Barricklow has sharp lyrics, fantastic melodies, abundant charm and one of the biggest, best voices that you'll hear almost anywhere."
