THE MAX LEVINE ENSEMBLE
the max levine ensemble are from washing DC. they have a lot of members and have lost a few over time but some of them include: spoonboy who does most of the singing/song writing and guitar playing, bepstein who plays tha bass and sings and write some too, matt lewis plays the drums and sings a little and so does nick popivicci. regi used to play the bass and is on record doing it. Alex plays the horn and sings some too. i met them because someone in DC told spoonboy that they sounded like operation: cliff clavin. he had never heard us before. he wrote me a nice letter and sent a Demo and ordered sope opcc cds. later he booked us (the devil is electric) a show with them at the corner kick in MD with a bunch of SKA bands. i liked him right away and started we played more and more shows with them and eventually spoons moved to bloomington. (he's back in DC now). needless to say, i love this band. they play pop punk. yes, pop punk. the lyrics are mostly politically with some sillyness and some covers. there is a little bit of SKA too.
