(PR) L.A.s garage-punk-teens-gone-full-scale-rock-opera The Willowz return to the road yet again in November with everyones favorite disco-punk band Electric Six. The tour kicks off November 13th in Philadelphia. The Willowz released the bands third album Chautauqua on Steve Aokis Dim Mak label earlier this year and has toured nearly non-stop ever since.
The Willowz were conceived in a bedroom in Anaheim, CA in the early summer of 2002 by Richie James Follin singer/guitarist and bassist/singer Jessica Reynoza, who were both at the time in their late teens. The name of the group came to Jessica in a dream when a willow(z) tree told her it would bring her musical enlightenment. The first 7-inch was recorded that summer with producer Paul Kostabi in NYC, with Tony Mann on drums (GG Allin, New York Dolls) and released on the infamous Posh Boy records by way of Robbie Fields.
