Led by former Funsize/River City High vocalist James Menefee and featuring members of Prabir/Goldrush, Long Arms burst onto the scene last year with their debut LP, Long Arms To Hold You. Their most recent release is a split 7 inch EP with fellow local indie rockers Horsehead. Though they are clearly influenced by the work of Paul Westerberg, both as a solo artist and with his legendary band The Replacements, influences from both James’s pop-punk past and the more countrified instrumentation of Goldrush’s Treesa Gold come through quite strongly as well. Long Arms will be playing The Republic Showcase at the RVA Music Fest on Saturday, September 10.
