Subpar Co-Star
Somerville, MA
Rock / low-fi
|
Hi
all you Stars, I am happy to announce Subpar Co-star is playing a free show on Saturday 1/26
at Sally O'Brien's in Union Sq. Somerville. It
is a great Irish bar with cheap drinks, no cover, plenty of parking, no cover, and
a great vibe (no cover). Did I mention there is no cover? Subpar Co-star
opens the night up, so be there early. Doors at 8 pm. Other than that, hope you
are having a great new year thus far. Warm wishes, James
 bandcamp
"Subpar Co-Star (a.k.a. James Force) was compelling with his whimsical irrelevant
style and acoustic guitar looping (quite impressive). I would call his thing ‘experimental
folk,’... He has an album available, Gidgets and Gadgets, an aptly-named venture,
what with its neo-folk, jazz-funk, spoken word, experimental, electronic and ambient
influences (and sometimes all on the same song). DIY recorded, produced and “distributed”
as a numbered limited edition, the packaging is as lo-fi as the recording, hand-lettered
with custom stickers, each bearing a different method of acceptable payment for
the release (mine says “pay w/ a unicorn, if ya got one”). " Julie
Stoller, The Boston Survival Guide
"Doing the DIY live
looping shows and handing out home recorded cd’s has definitely gotten me
some odd looks in Boston. I think it’s because we’re spoiled musically.
There are so many talented sound professionals, musicians, and studios in the city
that we’ve gotten used to pro music performances. Subpar is going in the opposite
direction and embracing the personal side of the songs and performances. I just
think it adds a different twist on what a show should be." Candace McDuffie,
Performer Magazine
"You can bet your over-sized
washboard attached to a tuba that this hardcore-DIY, low-fi amalgamation of sonic…
sonicness wasn’t “subpar” at T.T.’s last night!” Sean
Clancy, Dig Boston
