Seattle’s own Light in the Attic Records has signed bloozy garage-rocking hometowners the Blakes.

“We were getting interest from a lot of labels and we put ‘em off for a bit until we got everyone figured out,” says Blakes drummer Bob Husak. “We got flown to L.A. to see some labels, we played South by Southwest, and finally met this one guy Matt and this local label, and we realized that this is the guy and this is the label.”

This summer, LITA will release an EP with a few new songs and a few from the band’s self-released LP. They’ll follow that up with a re-release of the LP with bonus material, all enhanced by the crafty album art the label is known for.

The Blakes play Sasquatch! Music Festival on Saturday, May 26 at noon. A national tour is in the works.

#1: "ahh style rock" and "is this still cool?"

yeah #1, rock and style are still cool. don't worry, when those things aren't cool anymore, you'll you won't miss it. all of a sudden you'll be really cool.
