AM Taxi release live studio video of Shake, Rattle and Stall

March 23, 2016

AM TAXI is one of the first bands we ever featured on Music Junkie Press, nearly six years ago as we embarked on our music site journey. From the first time we saw them opening up for The Spill Canvas at Slim’s in San Francisco, we were blown away and instantly fell in love with their music which was a blend of punk and rock with captivating gritty vocals. They have persevered through lineup changes and a label that I think didn’t truly appreciate the honest true talent that was right in front of them.  AM Taxi is one of our favorite bands with a sound that is addictive in every sense. They are definitely back on the music scene and are working on releasing a mixtape, Semi-Confessional on May 13th. They recently released a video which was shot at the IV Lab Studio in Chicago and filmed by Press Photoraphy Network Inc. It features the band performing Shake, Rattle and Stall. It is awesome and I can’t wait for the tape!   AM Taxi [Read More]
