Jones Street Station: official website; myspace; “Listening is like running down a mountain on a switchback trail, the sound of surprise generating its own momentum. There’s a punk glee inside the bluegrass craft–and a punk vehemence inside the bluegrass smile.”– Greil Marcus

“... charming, unusually graceful music” – The New York Times

“...like 1995 Wilco with the sensibility of 2007 Wilco.” – The Onion AV Club, Milwaukee

“They play their catchy originals with virtuosic mandolin jams and honky-tonk piano fillers, and top them with off-kilter, good-time harmonies.” – Time Out New York

Last Good Tooth: myspace; Last good tooth is: Penn Sultan (lyrics, vocals, guitar), Arthur Kapp (drums), Kevin Sullivan (bass) and Alex Spoto (fiddle).

Penn sultan is inspired by his parents and grandmothers home of the mountains of NC and the old Appalachian music from the blue ridge area, mixed with his love and hate of New York city. Penn and Kevin met in Providence, RI at the Rhode Island School of design where they pretended to like art for a while so that they could play music for real. Then they met Spoto fiddlin’ around Brown town. He’s some sort of genius but no one understands when he explains what he studied there. Now: the perfect band mates- a love and happiness in the union along with Arthur, old-time-high-school-drummer-buddy-friend. They’re driving around with the drums but parking the car will always be their biggest obstacle.

Still mainly in providence Last Good Tooth is a heavily live show oriented band. Last Good Tooth gets girls do dance to songs about 9/11.
