The Knitters are John Doe, Exene Cervenka and DJ Bonebrake of the legendary punk band X, plus grammy winner Dave Alvin!
Apparently, they made a goof ball, side project recording that has been popular with a cult following, who, after 20 years clamouring for more, are finally able to enjoy The Modern Sounds of... The Knitters. A recent release includes Burning House of Love and Born To Be Wild. They are appearing this Sunday at Lee's.
I am a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge fan of Exene's solo record. Which includes weird spoken word pieces as well as poetic songs with both country and punk stylings. I sing along with every sylable everytime. Can't wait to check out the collective in Toronto this weekend.
