Hairspray Blues

Hairspray Blues is a rock and roll duo originally from the rust belt but currently operating out of Portland, OR.



Lost Negatives



Following up their Sick Little Package album, Hairspray Blues offers the world Lost Negatives, a new EP and the very first vinyl release from the band. The drums-and-guitar duo of Leslie and Kyle Stabile have never sounded beefier, in large part due to Justin Higgins, who recorded the tracks this past February at Old Standard Sound. The band also has a broader, darker sound than before, with their garage and punk riffage embracing metal more noticeably, and enveloping an even deeper sense of old, weird, pre-rock ‘n’ roll America. There’s a CD version of Lost Negatives that ups the track count from three to five, but something about Hairspray Blues’ amalgam of vintage sounds seems ideally matched for seven spinning inches of vinyl.

On a jagged, unmarked road cut through a forest of uniquely American dreams, illuminated only in moonlight filtered around the shadow of a howling coyote, Hairspray Blues careens lovestruck into the unknown; a brilliant, iridescent flash of powder blue muscle car convertible, the constant fight for control of the tinny car stereo audible for miles. The countryside speeds by, slashed through with Doppler-shifted snippets: Chuck Berry. Elvis. Johnny Thunders. Black Sabbath. Their destination is unknown, but one thing is certain: whenever they reach it, there’s going to be one hell of a party.



With a stripped down sound drawing equally from outlaw punk, classic heavy metal and roots rock-n-roll, Sick Little Package hurls listeners into a churning maelstrom of passion, pompadours and pocketknives, wrapped in denim and leather and served ticking loudly with a side of chicken-fried steak.



Go ahead. Open it. You know you want to.
