| The Parlor Mob and The Dunes get inked |

 By: TJ LiebgottMarch 05, 2009 New Jersey band The Parlor Mob rolled into Toronto on February 26 for a two-night stand at Tattoo Rock Parlour before departing on their European tour. For those of you that have not yet heard the band, they sound like if every band from the '70s had an orgy and The Parlor Mob was their bastard love child. I've seen far too many bands try to emulate the sounds of 70's arena rock, but few have the skill, raw talent, vocal range and chops that the Parlor Mob possess. The near-capacity crowd could not get enough of this dirty blues band. Their album single off And You Were A Crow may be called "Hard Times," but with songs like that, this band’s hard times are definitely behind them.  Opening act the Dunes did their best to work up the crowd who where mostly there to see The Parlor Mob. Playing an assortment of dancey power pop tracks, The Dunes were able to bring a few fearless fans out from the shadows of the club to shake their groove things at the front of the stage. Even though most of the crowd was hanging back, tracks like "Let It Go" and "Same Inside" had everybody tapping their shoes and bobbing their heads. The Dunes have a few more shows in Toronto before they head out on a Canada wide tour in May, so be sure and check them out.For more information on The Parlor Mob check out http://www.myspace.com/theparlormob For more information on The Dunes check out http://www.myspace.com/thedunesrock Related Articles
