Trash Panda is a new and rapidly rising band from Atlanta. After several high-energy, high-impact shows (including one sold out with a line out the door at Smith's Olde Bar) and the release of their first EP, "Off," the band is busy creating a new record of 14 songs. They tie together psychedelic rock and indie, even soulful sensibilities with nonchalance and a rebellious spirit, sometimes fusing punk and soul in an odd alchemy of ferociousness and stoned malaise. The show can at one moment be aggressive and wild and at the next calm to hip-shaking spacey groove.
