Gauntlet Hair: Out Don't

Gauntlet Hair is a relatively unknown pair of dudes who are named Andy and Craig, now residing in Denver, Colorado. The pair garnered a fair amount of attention after being part of the Rhinoceropolis-curated block of Denver-based bands that played at the post-SXSW Mexican extravaganza MtyMx. The band’s track “I Was Thinking…” is a pretty insatiable guitar stomp that throws some R&B and soul into the lo-fi revival pot, mixing heavily-reverbed guitars with a simple, but undeniably booty-shaking beat. Add in some Animal Collective-style vocal melodies and you got something that's pretty fantastic.
