From Day 8.1 of Janetpalooza: Hoax Hunters
At Strange Matter, RVA. 8 Mar 2012
In honor of International Women’s Day, they decided to cover a song “by a couple of awesome women.” If only I had realized what they were doing sooner and started recording faster! Here’s their cover of “Papyrus” by the Blue Rajas.

“Besides being an avid music enthusiast through his label and a dedicated photographic archivist, the one creative outlet that may come as a shock to a few is as a musician.”

Hoax Hunters started the evening off with a crushing set that left the slowly growing crowd craving more. The excitement started from the get-go as PJ Sykes raced between frantic vocals and rampant guitar licks. In what has been a constantly evolving rhythm section, Sykes has truly found a great backing band in Noell Alexander and Tim Falen. While Alexander and Sykes play off of one another as chaotic foils, Falen discovers a way to offer stability. In the role of bassist, he showed incredible promise with impressive fills on an instrument that’s unfamiliar for him considering his full-time gig as the drummer of the one and only Diamond Center. In early incarnations, the band was still full of chaos. This time around, the results felt more contained and realized. Hoax Hunters closed with their namesake song while Sykes flung himself and his guitar across the stage of Strange Matter to thunderous applause. Their next set will be with The Men at Strange Matter and it’s only a matter of time before they become a favorite band to many.
