SACKVILLE

this is gabe LEVINE's band. imagine country meets indie rock with some folk thrown in for good measure. it is made up of:

gabe: vocals, lyrics, electric guitar. (of NERDY GIRL and HOWARD NORTH fame)

harris: e. bass. (formerly of MILKEN, HOWARD NORTH, & MUDFISH)

genevieve: violin, vocals. (of HANGED:UP, PEST 5000)

ian: piano, organ, guitar. (formerly of SOFA)

pat: drums.

SACKVILLE released a fine CD on Mag Wheel Records in march or april of 1996 called "Low Ebb". if countryish flavour with integrity is your thing (if you are a fellow FREAKWATER fan, for example, or perhaps THE GERALDINE FIBBERS), pick this disc up a.s.a.p. they have now released a second CD which is called "These Last Songs". i unfortunately have not heard it yet - only the rave reviews. they have a split 7" single with THE HANDSOME FAMILY on Mag Wheel, and their latest is "The Principles Of Science" EP on Constellation.

former players include rob VIOLA (of HAYWOOD) on drums, kurt on amazing slide guitar, and eric (of SHORTWAVE) on drums.

they've opened up for the GRIFTERS among others.

at one point, gabe & genevieve have put together a side project called OMA MIEP complete with banjo, fiddle, backwoods crooning, & foottapping. i recommend it.
