Red Pony Clock is psychedelic-indiepop mini-orchestra from San Diego, CA. RPC’s endearingly ramshackle live performances are known throughout the Western US for their tendency to veer from lush orchestral passages to stand up comedy to beautiful Beach Boys inspired harmonies to cathartic punkish screamfests, followed by weird dixieland freak-outs - sometimes all in the same song. Whether that sounds appealing on paper or not, rest assured that it’s a rare concert-goer who isn’t moved in some form by the sheer spectacle of it all.
At home, RPC continues to strive for lo-fi greatness by continuing to test the limits of home recording. Their projects have gone above and beyond what's expected of a one man band (Gabe) recording alone in his apartment (of course, he'd be a fool not to tap into the resource of the talented Red Pony Clock band so he makes sure they contribute when they find the time). The most impressive of these works is RPC's feature length, 100% music-based, animated childrens story, The Legend Of The Red Pony. Work has finally begun on the multi-media filmed sequences that will make up the film and someday soon, the long-awaited project will be released on DVD. Stay tuned...
