TOTAL FEST X: HOT PANTS, SUNBURNS AND SHANNON AND THE CLAMS SET FOR AUGUST."If there is one band we knew for sure we would pee our hot pants for when we heard they were playing Total Fest X, it’s these two handsome guys, and one smoking hot babe. Anyone who listens to Women of Action on KBGA (or KBGA at all, for that matter) has heard this band and loved it. Thank the gods, they will be rocketing from horny Oakland, California to our magical land of sunny Montana. This is music probably best experienced in the summer, when it’s hot as fuck and everyone is sweaty and you can look super cool in sunglasses and as little clothing as possible. Shannon + Clams have two full-length LPs and every single song is a dirty, doo-wop stained, rock and roll hit. Shannon Shaw does not fuck around when it comes to crooning with real soul and one of those Clams has a voice that would make Buddy Holly jealous. Emily Newton-John caught them in Portland last summer, when it was 90+ degrees and she was sunburned and nursing her heatstroke with ice packs and Bloody Marys. And guess what? They still blew her away with their ability to lay down sweet, upbeat party songs right alongside such emotive laments." (Women of Action, Emily Denman and Hanna Zimorino)
