NUTHATCH-47

PEOPLE SPEAK

Reviews, Articles, Blog mentions, Hates, Rants, etc.

Throughout the life of the band, we've been fortunate enough to have been talked about :-) Some "talkers" became our supporters and the friends of Nuthatch-47 (you can see them here). We've decided to start gathering the high-lights of the "Hatch-related" talks in this section.

- "Present Magazine", January 19, 2009

One of our first online supporters, "Present Magazine", published some words about our band and a link to "Russian Gangster's Grandma" video in Track Stars: Featured Artists" section of their online edition. Click to view.

- "Ink Magazine", March 11, 2009

"Ink Magazine" interviewed Nuthatch-47 and high-lighted our "Bad Economy" video in the "WTF?" section of both - print and online editions of their mag. We gladly embraced the WTF definition of the band as the "most WTF band of Kansas City" :-) Click to view.

- "Dumbwhore", KC blogger, 2009

"Dumbwhore", the Blogger with eccentric name and a fun website has written some great responses and posted some fruitful links to our videos.Click to view.

- "Parigo Studios", March 17, 2009

Our long time friends, Parigo Studios, have spent some freakishly cold moments photo-shooting us in the outdoorsy environment. Even though we all about froze to death - they still like us, present us with beautiful pictures, and post links to our online/offline appearancesClick to view.

- "The Pitch", May 15, 2009

Jason Harper, the music editor at The Pitch, wrote a great pre-album-release-party blog about us in the "Wayward Blog, Discovery of the Day" section of their online edition. He partied with us at the CD release party. Hope he had as much fun as we did. We'll never forget the disected Pinata, the drunk-Russian dancers on stage, the gangsta-flow rapping caraoke girls, and lots of etc's. Now we need to locate those, who took photos of this mayhem :-) Click to view.

- "Novoe Radio", June 2, 2009

Novoe Radio, www.novoeradio.com, is a a San-Francisco-based Russian/European/World online Radio Station which is listened all around the world. They have started to play us on radio and have put up a nice banner on their Homepage. Description states: "These guys are not trying to hide an accent, but all the words are quiet understandable. That's why they will reach popularity faster than the artists who try to cover up their origins", or something like that :-) Spasibo! Click to view.

- "Sosedoff", an upset hater, June 3, 2009

We hail our "haters" just as much as our supporters. Therefore we added an interesting chat that happened on NovoeRadio chat-line after our song "Russian gangster's Grandma" started to air. SOSEDOFF apparently misunderstood the comedic and oftenly sarcastic outlook on the era of "wild 90's in Russia" that is depicted in "Gandster's Grandma" song, and got quite upset about the song, and the whole "wild drinking mayhem" style of the band. Tastes differ, though, and we appreciate the attention :-) (we translated the chat into English, and added some explanatory comments to clarify the situation. Read from Bottom to Top) Click to view.

- "96.5 the BUZZ Morning Show", June 3, 2009

We were very lucky to get invited to "Afentra's Big Fat Morning Buzz Show" at 96.5 the BUZZ, a large MidWest alternative radio. It was a riot! At 8:30 am we got fueled up with coffee and beer and hit the air-waves with a "highly-awakened" conversation with the DJs and 3 live songs. Great thanks to Afentra, Jeriney and everyone at the studio to make us feel like home (a very wild home) and embracing the Hatch! You can download the MP3's of the show from the link below, and check out the Youtubes of the recording on www.965thebuzz.com or our YouTube Channel. (recent update - we had another appearance on the Buzz in September, fun times!) Click to view.

- "Ink Magazine", July 1, 2009

"Ink Magazine" did an awesome review of our album "Respectable Sins". We are so happy to "move up" from INK's "WTF" section (which we loved) to the "New Music" section :-) Thank you guys for strong support! Click to view.

- "The Pitch", July 7, 2009

- "PITCH 2009 Best of KC" Award, October, 2009

To our surprise and delight, Max of Nuthatch-47 received this award for Hatch videos. If not for the band - these videos wouldn't happen. Now we got a taste for making the vids, thank you "the Pitch", and everyone who enjoyes them! Will do more :-)Click to view.

- "Mumiy Troll", October 18, 2009

A truely historic event had happened in the life on the band on October 18 - we opened for an iconic band from Russia, Mumiy Troll. This band is known to virtually every Russian, and their songs have become the classic of Russian rock. The concert was in the Record Bar, KC, MO, and it was an amazing event. Unfortunately, we didn't get to talk much to MT live, but we managed to get some pictures taken together, and they even posted our merch table on their official blog! :-)Click to view.

- "PlasticSax", October 30, 2009

Bill Brownlee, the KC music reviewer (www.plasticsax.blogspot.com) visited the "Buzz's Halloweenie Roast" event on October 30, where we played on the same bill with The Flock of Seagulls, Jet, and Black Joe Lewis. It was a fun pre-Halloween event in Beaumont Club, KC MO. Even though Bill compared us to Gogol (hard to avoid comparison, due to Russian accent :-)), we are glad he enjoyed our set. Quoting: "As unlikely as it seems, Nuthatch 47, a local Gogol Bordello-style band, offered my favorite performance of the night. They were funny and they seemed genuinely happy to be there."
