number one fanclub

In their ongoing effort to spotlight the best bands in Power Pop, Brit Pop and Shoegaze, Craig and Shawn of #1 Fanclub bring you a new weekly series called Quick Play.  Faster than your favorite pop song, we spend a few minutes discussing a new band or new music from a familiar artist.

This week we feature Power Pop legend Chris Von Sneidern's latest release Emerge - a diverse collection of songs to satisfy old fans and win newcomers.  Chris has recorded some of the best known albums in the Power Pop genre from Wood + Wire to Big White Lies. In addition, Chris has played with The Sneetches and Flamin Groovies and contributed to several other projects with other artists including John Wesley Harding and Paul Collins.  Check out his album Emerge as well as his full discography at www.cvsmusic.com

This week we feature Zed For Zulu - the latest release Those Pretty Wrongs.  The band is collaboration between legendary Big Star drummer Jody Stephens and Luther Russell. Recorded at Ardent Studios in Memphis using much of the gear from the classic Big Star records, the latest release is a great collection of acoustic songs written and performed with expert craftsmanship.
