Formed in 2004, the five-piece Souvenirs include Marla Gal, Frank Spoerer, Bruce Wong, Fred Urdiales, and Dan Dwyer. The band spent most of 2006 working with producer/engineer Blaise Barton (Bob Dylan, Liz Phair, Katie Todd Band), putting the finishing touches on this inaugural, self-titled CD. Although they can get a little funky and even a little country, the Souvenirs tend to stick to lush harmonics, catchy melodies, and lyrics with a slight sense of humor. The band brings together a wide range of influences to make delicious pop/rock - from Marla's singer/songwriter 80's pop perspective, to Frank's blues, Bruce's 80's and alternative rock with some shredding thrown in for good measure, Freddie's funk and latin-based bass licks, and finally Dan's classic and 50's rock style.
