THEY ARE: Window
THE BAND: Jimmy Dasher, 21, guitar, harmonica, mandolin, keyboards, vocals; Nick Mery, 21, lead vocals, guitar, mandolin, keyboards, harmonica, ukulele; Paul Venzor, 21, drums; Bryan Rice, 22, bass THEIR WORDS: “We're really young, and we're trying to do something that's damned near impossible (playing music for a living). You have to sacrifice a lot and leave a lot behind, and it really affects your school and your friends and your family. A lot of the songs on the album, they're not happy little love songs. There's loss, and there's isolation.” — Nick Mery, lyricist. THEIR RECORDS: “Eleventh Street EP” (2005); “Wrong Way Home” (2006); “Jack and Coke” (due in April) WHERE TO SEE THEM: Occasional gigs at Sam's Burger Joint and colleges around town. Window has played throughout Texas and the Southeast and is set to go on 36-city U.S. tour this summer. THE WEB: window-music.com; myspace.com/window; preview the new album, “Jack and Coke,” at purevolume.com/window THE 210 TAKE: How refreshing to find a young San Antonio band that ventures beyond rock to a gentler folk sound. And it's a good sound. The guys are solid in their songwriting, tight in their playing and not afraid to experiment with alt-country riffs or island beats when the mood suits them. This is great road-trip music, or music to throw on while hanging out with friends. They're sure to ask you, “Who is this?” µ.Jessica Belasco | Contributor
