It’s official. There’s another supergroup in town. And this kitten’s got claws!

We’re talking ameowt _cheetahcheetah_, a rising endeavor that features Live Music Capital veterans from A. Sinclair, BOOHER, Mean Jolene, and Other Vessels. _cheetahcheetah_ has spent this past summer gigging around town and showing off their brilliant spotted patterns of modern art rock, which sound sort of like a more hedonistic, less opiate-obsessed, Warhol-weary Velvet Underground. The quartet also recently confirmed that they’re not a beast just built for live gigs; _cheetahcheetah_ landed on their feet and roared onto digital streaming with the release of their debut studio single last Friday.

And we gotta say, that indoctrination into this big cat cult, “shanti b”, is about as “Bhagwan” as it gets. Brandishing the concise runtime, cheetah-speed time signature shifts, nuance of imperfectly human performance, and lackadaisical charm of Reed, Nico, and co., “shanti b” has our ears perked up, swishing our tail, and purring for more.
