Open Hand line up change and new song

Contributed by 200_Bars. Posted by aubin on Monday, April 21, 2008 at 11:00 AM (EDT)

Open Hand has had some lineup changes as well as a label change. The news comes on the heels of the announcement that the band has begun work on the follow up to 2005's You And Me. The record is due out on Anodyne Records.

Their lineup now consists of Paul Malinowski on bass and Jason Gerkin on drums (both formerly of late-era Shiner). The band is recording with Matt Talbot (Hum) who also contributes vocals to a new song from the band.

You can check out the new song on their myspace page.

The first collection of Open Hands songs are amazing (especially the drumming)! Their last full length though was so awful, I couldn't even tell it was the same band.

I agree with the dude above, but holy shit did they just pique my interest (big Shiner fan, especially The Gerkin Era... although Tim Dow was great in his own regard) with this new rhythm section. Gerkin fuckin kills the skins, that guy is uber-talented.
