Wet Hair is Shawn Reed and Ryan Garbes, the two remaining of
Raccoo-oo-oon that stayed in Iowa City after the bands end. Reed also
runs Night-People Records, which Garbes often contributes to. Wet Hair
began as a solo outing for Reed in late 2007 during the final months of
Raccoo-oo-oon, and after the release of a 12” EP and the Irifi Cassette
Garbes was added on organ and live drums.
Wet Hair has evolved
over time shifting the bands sound steadily towards a more refined pop
sensibility. An experimental attitude and psychedelic atmosphere still
prevails in Wet Hair’s music and the core instrumentation of the band
has largey stayed consitent throughout with Reed on vocals, synth, drum
machine, + tapes and Garbes on live drums, + synth/organ.- Via Last.FM
