Band: Sultry
From: Roanoke, Virginia
Their formation story:
(Josh, vocals): "I moved to Roanoke back in October 2021 with my wife and kid to be closer to family. Not thinking I’d find any buds here I quickly bonded with my manager (Bentley) at the time. We had a ton of the same influences/interests mainly our love of Norm (RIP) and cheeseburger dogs.
"We then recruited Matt who plays in Bentley’s other band, Ex Parents to play bass. He also smells like peanut butter and jelly, so that’s rad. Tyler, that mf, was playing hard to get but once we got’em we were sure to trap him and chain him up in the basement."
Their sound in their own words:
"Our sound is just our attempt at sounding like a '60s girl group.
"For fans of Italian hardcore and bondage but you might also dig us if you’re into Wretched, His Hero Is Gone, Negative Approach, and Irma Thomas."
Latest release info:
"These were the first songs we wrote as a band and we definitely wanted them to be the first thing people here from us. It’s also released on our own label, Culture Desert Records, so be on the look out for future releases!"
Future plans:
"Play as much as we can, a possible 45, and a small tour."
What other bands from their region should we check out?
"Gotta mention our sister band, Ex Parents, who have an amazing full-length LP coming out on Culture Desert Records and lemme tell you that thing is a barn burner.
"Also shout out to Hostile Takedown, Orenda, Gaol, The Flooks, Times Tables, and Collective Action. "
