Song of the Day: Bread & Butter - Shoot My Mouth Off

Every Monday through Friday, we deliver a different song as part our Song of the Day podcast subscription. This podcast features exclusive KEXP in-studio performances, unreleased songs, and recordings from independent artists that our DJs think you should hear. Today’s song, featured on the Afternoon Show with Kevin Cole, is "Shoot My Mouth" by Seattle band Bread & Butter from their 2015 self-released, self-titled album.

Bread & Butter - Shoot My Mouth Off (MP3)

Jangly, pop infused stoner rock is one label to spread all over local quartet Bread & Butter. This new Seattle group is still relatively obscure; their goofy aesthetic and self identification as “slap 'n' tickle specialists” and “traders in all things tuff-n-tender” yield little information beyond the x-rated. Most importantly, the group does seem to have an affinity for beer, comestibles, and power pop. “Shoot My Mouth Off,” from their self-released debut is a catchy track with its raucous, rolling guitar riffs and inescapable melody. The addition of laid-back, reggae inspired vocals brings a lightheartedness to otherwise weighty lyrics. My suggestion: crack a Rainier, make a greasy sandwich and indulge in some Bread & Butter.

For all you breadheads out there: the band will perform live at the Cha Cha Lounge on February 22nd. Check out their Facebook and website for more updates and keep an eye out for their recent in-studio performance on KEXP!
