An ethereal post-punk song is probably the last place one would expect to hear a slide guitar when there’s synth at hand. But there it was, right in front of me Saturday night at the Black Cat Backstage, expertly played by Deleted Scenes guitarist Dominic Campanaro on the band’s catchy new single “BedBedBedBedBed.” Celebrating the release of its new EP, the band was clearly energized by the good-size crowd. “We’ve been on tour the past couple of weeks, and when you’ve been playing to people who’ve never heard of you, this is really nice to see,” lead singer/guitarist Dan Scheuerman said.

Deleted Scenes second record, Young People’s Church of the Air will be released in early September on Sockets Records.
