Dear all,
The Loose label is familiar to you all as the home of many fine artists that we bring to you.
Their latest signing is a fantastic band from New Orleans called Greazy Alice and we have secured a date on their first UK our. Expect another of those "I saw them in a small venue" shows.
We also have a great support in the shape of Bristol's The Lovely Basement.
Tickets will go on sale next Monday at 10 am.
O and B
Alice, Alice, who the hell is Greazy Alice? Good question.
Greazy Alice is a character from Terry Allen's seminal 1975 song cycle Juarez, a working girl haunting a cantina on the Mexican border “Well I'm sitting in a border palace, suckin' on Dos Equis beer, suckin' with Greazy Alice” - "Border Palace" by Terry Allen.
When New Orleans musician Alex Pianovich was searching for a moniker under which to present new material written as an artist's rendering of that Big Easy bar band sound. Upon hearing Juarez he knew he had a name. The current incarnation of the band took shape in November 2024, when Pianovich began to cut demos with an airtight rhythm section consisting of longtime friend Will Repholz on bass and frequent studio collaborator Lee Garcia on drums. Pianovich built on this foundation with swirling guitars and twinkling honky tonk keys. With the final addition of harmony vocals from local singer-songwriter Jo Morris there was magic on the tape.
