April 1st - The Atomic Swindlers at the Club at Water Street located at 204 North Water Street, Rochester, NY. April 16th - The Atomic Swindlers at Nazareth College, Pittsford, NY. April 29th - New York Debut - The Atomic Swindlers at the Underscore, located at 90th and First Avenue.

You get the idea. It's hip spacey stuff with a retro 70s beat that's a lot of fun. The group could use a strong male vocal so that it didn't seem like a backup band for the femme fatale lead singer, but otherwise it's fairly far out stuff. Will SF fans dig it? Do they care? I don't know. I liked it enough to consider heading up to NYC for their big city debut April 29th at Underscore.

If you dig words, start with the lyrics of their lead song, which has gotten some significant airplay on XM radio and other hip venues. Or you can pop over to their website to ogle April, and listen to excepts from their tunes.

Hey Tokyo, Andicar
Mission control in Callisto
I can crash without a sound
Don't mean to bring you down
But there's no heaven

I wanted to shine like the silver surfer
A cosmic queen of the stars
Now I'm just a killer on a wave less sea
Weightless and free
Your voice is all that's left of me

Did you walk on green today
Did you feel the cool wind move across your face
Did you raise your hand and
Block out the sun
Whisper my name and yours like they were one

I hope your kindness
Has left you strong
One more revolution
And I'll be gone
