Brian Karscig has already had a successful run in the San Diego music scene, after a stint in the band Louis XIV and owning his own production company for several years. However, his is latest project, the band Nervous Wreckords, may go down as his best work.<\/p>\n

The band features Karscig singing lead as well as playing acoustic guitar and piano. Daniel Schraer is on the keyboard, Cindy Cate is on bass and Lindsay Matheson rocks the electric guitar.<\/p>\n

Karscig founded the band in 2009 with the help of Anthony Saffery, a producer and member of the U.K. band Cornershop. The idea for the band came out of necessity, after the opportunity of a lifetime fell on their laps.<\/p>\n

At the time, Karscig was in a different band but had been making mixes with Saffery during his down time. They decided to record their own EP, and enlisted the help of Karscig\u2019s friend Mark Stoermer, who also happens to be the bassist for the popular band the Killers.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe ended up playing our EP for the rest of the Killers, and they loved it,\u201d Karscig said. \u201cThey called me three weeks before their \u2018Day and Age\u2019 tour and asked if I had a band because they wanted us to open thirteen shows. I lied and said I did so I wouldn\u2019t miss the opportunity, and then spent the next week calling all my friends.\u201d<\/p>\n

Karscig said he and the friends who answered his call rehearsed for approximately two weeks. \u201cOur first show ever was supporting the Killers at Red Rocks amphitheater in Colorado, in front of a sold-out, 11,000-person crowd,\u201d he said. \u201cIt was pretty crazy and monumental.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over the years, Karscig said that the Nervous Wreckords band members have gotten to know each others\u2019 styles and habits better, and have become more \u201cin sync\u201d with each other while playing live shows. Being a relatively new band, he said there is always room for more growing.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think a great song is one that blows me away, excites the band and says something,\u201d Karscig said.\u00a0\u201dWe set out to be our favorite band, so if we like it, we\u2019re usually satisfied. When we put it out there and it\u2019s received well, it\u2019s an added bonus.\u201d<\/p>\n

They appear to be on the right track, as it was recently announced the band was nominated for Best Rock Group at this year\u2019s San Diego Music Awards. This year\u2019s awards ceremony is Aug. 13 at Humphreys By the Bay.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very excited to be nominated. It\u2019s always a good feeling to be noticed for something you\u2019re passionate about,\u201d Karscig said. \u201cWe are in really good company in that category, with a lot of great bands. Win or lose, it\u2019s a nice compliment to be recognized.\u201d<\/p>\n

Karscig, too, said he is happy with what the band has accomplished, and was thankful for the recognition. \u201cValidation from our peers and our home town would be a nice surprise,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The next step for the Nervous Wreckords is a tour for their new record, \u201cLet Them All Talk.\u201d The band will be swinging through town on June 30 to play at the Casbah, located at 2501 Kettner Blvd. The Casbah, Karscig said, is one of his favorite parts of playing at home, in San Diego.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur biggest goal this year is just to be heard.\u00a0I think we have great songs and a great band,\u201d Karscig said with pride. \u201cWe\u2019re still pretty unknown in the big scheme of things, and I\u2019d love to have people hear this record.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
