BAEBLE MUSIC VIDEOS: Bear Hands - What A Drag

Bear Hands are certainly a band that's been out there for a few years, making the rounds with their hands carefully cupped around all the promise in the world. They've been taking good care of that potential, neatly sculpting it to perfection, not revealing too much too soon. And the good news? 2010 just might be the year the Brooklyn based band have the opportunity to unveil their work to a larger audience, thanks in part to signing a recent album deal with Cantora Records.

We're not too sure when that album is due, but the band is giving away a sneak peak in the form of the digital files to their What A Drag EP (to be released on limited white vinyl this Feb. 16th), and a creative little video for the title track. The songs are available now on the band's website...just surrender your email address and it's yours. As for the video, it's a bit of a head scratcher in a way, with the band fleeing three women via a tractor-pulled wagon. True to title, the end is a bit of a drag. Think Thelma and Louise. - David Pitz
