BBsitters Club is a rock band based in Chicago that features Doug Kaplan and Charlie Olvera on guitar and vocals, Max Allison on bass, and Paul Birhanu on drums. As the labelƒ??s de-facto in-haus band, BBsitters Club satisfies Hausu Mountain co-founders Allison and Kaplanƒ??s urge to remain connected to the rock and roll music they grew up loving and playing ƒ?? far across the spectrum from the experimental electronics featured on the lionƒ??s share of HausMo releases.?ÿA solid four years after the one-two-punch releases of BBsitters Club & Party, the bandƒ??s 2020 debut studio album, and Joelƒ??s Pickƒ??s Vol. 1, the first volume in a series of audience-recorded live takes from shows around Chicago, we find the BBs reviving the Joelƒ??s Pickƒ??s series with Vol. 2. Charged with the energy of a close-knit group of friends willing to follow along with each otherƒ??s most outlandish ideas both in composition and live performance, JPV2 offers us a bewildering yet always tongue-in-cheek palette of ideas cherry-picked and mashed together into amalgams that both embrace ƒ??rock traditionsƒ?� and defy them with a cherubic grin. BBsitters Clubƒ??s amorphous compositions land somewhere between the worldƒ??s most baked prog band and a jamband thatƒ??s never content to lapse into wheel-spinning complacency. On JPV2, BBsitters Club cartwheel between eras and styles of rock music with abandon ƒ?? a TV stuck flipping channels after your dad falls asleep with one leg on the remote. We encounter the elliptical dueling guitars and autumnal atmospheres of midwest emo / math rock, the gregarious stomp of electrified country rock, blues rock that has melted from ingesting one too many hallucinogens, and fried Devo-style art punk that breaches into the realms of ska before melting into free-form noise rock flecked with the bizarro imitative instrument tones of Kaplanƒ??s MIDI guitar.?ÿ
