Miami New Times says:
Somehow, Sailor Jerry knows what we want to hear.
Over the last couple of years, the booze brand has brought Austin's Strange Boys to town while hosting shows by Miami's own Jacuzzi Boys. And this time, Jerry and crew are importing a gayishly fabulous band with a 1960s rock 'n' roll feel -- Hunx and His Punx -- for a night at The Stage.
Signed to Hardly Art, the Oakland band has been causing quite a stir over the past year. Headed up by Seth Bogard, formerly of the electro act Gravy Train!!!!, Bogard and gang sound like a queer punk Shangri-Las.
Hunx is backed by four ladies, his Punkettes: Shannon Shaw of Shannon and the Clams, Michelle Santamaria, Erin Emslie, and Amy Blaustein. And their getups and aesthetic are a nice little mix of early John Waters, Quintron, and deliciously tacky '70s glam.
Hunx and His Punx have some notable friends too. They first toured with the late Jay Reatard and Nobunny, who cowrote some of their songs. Their debut album Gay Singles speaks volumes with the name alone, a compilation of hard to find and out of print seven-inch singles.
