The Exbats (Bisbee, Arizona / Goner)
Not to be confused with The Shaggs, or The Osmonds (Partridge Family is okay) We, The Exbats, started with a daughter (Inez) and father (Kenny) listening to lots and lots of records and writing songs. We got lucky and caught the ear of desert recording guru, Matt Rendon (The Resonars, and as of 2021, the fourth Exbat!) and we put out our first tape in 2017. In 2019 we hit the jackpot again attracting Bobby Carleson Jr. on bass. Our latest record for Goner Records is the hyper-catchy sunshine-pop inspired Now Where Were We. It's our favorite set of songs yet. We have evolved to the point where we are basically oblivious to modern recording trends, but the lyrics do a decent job reflecting very modern concerns. We live in Bisbee, Arizona. It's way down in the south-east corner of the state by the Mexico border. It's a sweet little arty hippy town. Come say hi! -inez and kenny mclain
