Semi Precious Weapons is known as NYC's garage glam rock heroes. Having only formed in August of 2005, their buzz and fan base would suggest that of a band that has been at it for years. Their outlandish rock and roll show is getting some serious attention from all types of New Yorkers, and after extremely successful east coast and mid-west tours this summer and fall, a sold out September NYC residency and with THE Tony Visconti (T-rex, David Bowie, Morrissey) producing new tracks for Semi Precious Weapons, the whole country is starting to catch on.
