The Popravinas

Former bassist and lead vocalist Eddy Sill (originally from Pittsburgh, PA) of the infamous Los Angeles band The Mutts has suddenly stumbled upon a few other “fellow fun-seekers” to surprisingly form this frolicking band with California twang in the heart of Santa Monica, CA. The Popravinas specialize in extremely catchy songs and follow through with melody after melody. John Adair (bass/lead vocalsguitar, harmonica, mandolin, vocals), Dean Lyons (rhythm guitar, back up vocals), and David Rodgers (drums) comprise The Popravinas!

The “funnest” party you ever went to — the party after the party! That would quickly describe The Popravinas who are known to combine lyrics and sounds that are reminiscent of The Replacements, evolving guitar nuances in the vein of The Rolling Stones, and interesting touches of artists such as Whiskeytown, Wilco, The Old 97s. When you mix it all up, you come out with The Popravinas. Already known for their fun live shows, the band has recently released their third album Willy Nilly which is quickly becoming an international ear-shaker on many radio (and internet radio) programs. Their first CD Everybody’s Fault But Ours and second California Sonic are still popular choices.
