Bites of P'nash

When Citizens Banned was on the fritz, Adri was secretly collaborating with a friend, Erica, playing bass for a little pet project of hers called Sharp Teeth. He would blushingly state that his new band was playing a show, while the rest of us would calmly state, "It's okay. It's okay to be in two bands, man."

CB filtered into a fraction of existence, culminating into another pet project, Lizard People. But in between CB's demise and Liz Peeps' little stint, Sharp Teeth gained recognition across the country. They were a hit band, a charting band on the college radio circuit.

Taking Riot Grrl zest and giving it a good dose of Hole and Veruca Salt, Sharp Teeth have honed their crowns to pearly whites.

Today, they kicked off their first tour at the 501 Club in Minneapolis. They'll be doing a ten day trip around the Midwest this week and next along with friends Disasteratti, who are definitely one of my new favorite local bands of the Twin Cities.
