FEATURED: Soda
Formed in Milwaukee in the mid 1990's, Soda consisted of four drinking buddies who spit out heart-on-your-sleeve pop songs that somehow make you want to sing along whether it's happy hour, closing time or Sunday morning coming down. Sort of Hank Williams meets Badfinger meets Husker Du. During their 3-year existence, members John Daniels (b), Mike DeVogel (v, g), Charles Jordan (v, g), and Alan Weatherhead (d,v) built-up a war chest of hit songs, while managing to record only a handful of them and not release a single one. Their reputation was built off a 4-song demo tape they handed out to bands they opened for. Those bands in turn spread out to preach the gospel. 'Into The Teens' and 'Purple Heart' are taken off that cassette. As the saying goes, play this record loud (Our preference is closing time).
Why you never heard of them: mostly recorded only when studio time was offered free and what they did record, they never released.
Indicative Lyrics: 'My heart of gold is not worth much.'
