Gleeson is a rock n’ roll band from Austin, TX and the brain child of songwriter and Almost There Records founder Ty Chandler. In 2009, they released their ironically titled debut The Very Very Best of Gleeson, a record Chandler called their crack at a “Mag Earwhig!”-style recording approach. The album’s epic 11-minute centerpiece, “Call to Arms”, is considered by Chandler to be the band’s greatest song. After another 3 1/2 years in and out of the studio, the band released Gleeson II, an ambitious double album that was recorded, mixed and mastered fully analog. In the 22 tracks on Gleeson II, the band covers just about every variation of power pop imaginable, a genre-trip drummer Raul Vela IV refers to as “Superchunk to Springsteen and everywhere in between.” The band is currently at work on their third album, due out next year.
