Editorial Reviews

From the Artist

"Underground rap hasn't sounded so fun since the Pharcyde's early-'90s heyday" -- Entertainment Weekly

"The best Seattle group I've heard in years" -- Patrick MacDonald, Seattle Times

Product Description

"Our music is cuff links, pinkie rings, bow ties, and nice ascots for everybody!" says Tilson, one of two MC's for the Seattle super-group. "We do a little bit more than the average, in the sense that we do a whole let less than the average." The Saturday Knights are a culmination of three freaks, a jaw-jacking combination of performing personalities: Storyteller and entertainer Tilson, who can tickle any lady's funny bone; low-income yarn spinner and urban graffiti poet Barfly; and pumped up by the big beats and psychedelic turntable-art of DJ Suspence. Seattle's "punk rock-power pop band with hip-hop songs" signed with Light In The Attic Records after a solid year of being wooed by labels like Downtown Records and Island/Def Jam. Their first gig was an improvisational smash success opening for a sold-out RJD2, and since then The Saturday Knights have performed with with Death Cab for Cutie, The Streets, The Go! Team, Blowfly, and Lady Sovereign. TSK circulated these four songs as a demo last year, and "45" became a hit on taste-making station KEXP as well as commercial powerhouse The End 107.7 FM. It is one of four tracks to be released on their forthcoming introductory EP, with a full-length promised in fall 2007!
