Phian interviewed TOW3RS last Thursday before they played Local Band Local Beer at Tir Na Nog Irish Pub in Raleigh.
You can hear two TOW3RS songs during the interview: Eee! and Bounty.
TOW3RS was also joined by Lazer Dan and Blair from Tir Na Nog, and they had a special prize for anyone who could come by the studio dressed like a French broad.
You can find out more about TOW3RS on Bandcamp and Facebook.

Winston-Salem's Phuzz Records have announced a pair of exciting summer/fall releases. Longtime Asheville favorites The Tills (Formerly The Critters) will release an EP that they recently recorded with Mitch Easter (Pavement, R.E.M.) August 12th. T0W3RS is the psych-pop project of Raleigh's Derek Torres. The new LP will be released October 21st and is titled TL;DR. That's geek-speak for "too long; didn't read" if you're not familiar. Both bands are also on the bill for the upcoming Hopscotch Festival in Raleigh.
TOW3RS - The Situation
Interview: WOOL
WOOL is very promising band from Raleigh on the cusp of releasing their first EP, Delta, this Friday, and they stopped by the After Work Special for an in-depth chat with DJ e baby and myself, Spaceman Spiff. We discussed their songwriting process, the happenstance nature of musical discovery on the internet, and their myriad of creative influences. The band brought their instruments and played gorgeous renditions of “Mountains” and “Stars.” I’ve seen WOOL live several times in the past few months, and I was always struck by the beautiful noise they made: lovely dream pop songs, enveloped in hazy guitars, that build to rapturous crescendos. The acoustic versions they played were intimate and confessional: the pop underbelly of the songs were brought to the foreground. We played their recorded single “Bulletin Air,” and the band debuted their recorded version of “Delta.” If the other two songs on the EP sound this great, we’re truly in for a gem. WOOL’s EP Release Show is this Friday, October 25 at Kings Barcade with See Gulls and Derek Torres of T0W3RS. Listen here.
