Jeff Noller from the band Skittish stops by to chat with Gary Holdsteady.

Listen in as Jeff does a live performance recording from WestWood Gardens Studios.

The band Skittish was my first ever full band interview. The last one was recorded in a coffee shop with loudness from humans and coffee grinders. This time around, we made sure to get it done right this time.

ABOUT BEING SKITTISH AND SUCH

Much like the suburbs from whence it sprang, Skittish is a bleeding, sweating, writhing ball of human nature, bursting at the seems, but ultimately suppressed and packaged in neatly crafted boxes. Songs and suburbs have seedy underbellies to spare.
Skittish masks every bruise and blackened eye with handclaps and harmonies; every well trimmed lawn and uber-catchy melody are woven together by subversive humor and an undercurrent of anarchy. Yes, this is quite ambitious, but anything less wouldn’t matter. And to matter, in this prepackaged world, is an admirable ambition indeed.
The 2004 brainchild of recent college graduate Jeff Noller, Skittish breached-birthed its way into the world through a meltdown of other main-stream rock projects. Noller had played in many soulless pop-rock bands during college, but the always vibrant Minneapolis music scene seemed poised for a change of sound. Wanting to do something different, Noller quit his other bands and retreated to his suburban-Minnesota parents’ basement with Protools on a Mac, and some second-hand instruments to record ‘…from my parents basement.’ This collection of quirky songs, and his passionate live shows, gained the one-man-band local notoriety.
