Toronto power-pop quartet First Base have recently released a new LP titled “Not That Bad” on Drunken Sailor Records. This record delivers exactly what you would expect from First Base…catchy hooks, impeccable harmonies and altogether well-crafted songs executed to perfection. Especially as the weather gets warmer you’ll be cranking these tunes as you roll down the windows. The title track sounds like an oldies pop rock tune that’ll put a smile on your face as you take that special someone out for a milkshake at the local diner. “Not That Bad” is available on Drunken Sailor Record’s Bandcamp. First Base will be opening for Patsy’s Rats along with Tough Age and Binos on Wednesday April 4^th at Hard Luck Bar. – Kris Gies

First Base is a modest name for this band. They could be called Home Run...at least Third Base. They put together some excellent throwback pop punk tunes. They actually could be from the 70's or 80's and no one would ever know. "You've Got A Hold On Me" is perfect for if you wanna just rock out...or if you have a certain love interest and couldn't quite figure out the words to describe it. First Base will be playing the Garrison on April 18th! - Kris Gies
