Scattered throughout Brandon Arnold’s collection of Maxell’s and TDK’s was a library of songs belying a penchant for catchy hooks, straight-forward structures, and a reverence for the sloppy simplicity of long-lost indie classics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA slightly drunken conversation between Tim and Brandon set the wheels in motion. They needed a third, and Brandon remembered Tracy. He asked. She said “sure,” and The Preakness was born. After that first practice on a cold February afternoon, the tape hiss and quaint flubbery of Brandon’s early demos gave way to a more cohesive sound. Tim’s energetic, intuitive drumming coupled with Tracy’s natural harmonies and solid bass lines breathed a vitality into the tunes only hinted at in the original demos, while maintaining the loose allegiance to the lo-fi aesthetic that gave the songs life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Preakness played its first show at the EARL April 20th, 2006. The band has since played many more shows, including well-received performances at Corndog-o-rama, the Paste Rock and Reel Festival, and a Syd Barrett tribute, and shared the stage with bands like Celebration, Sound Team, Ultrababyfat, and Portastatic. The Preakness is out of the gate and running strong.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Misc Label","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67644076392740,"sku":null,"price":4.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2606\/0952\/files\/Screenshot2026-10-07172756.png?v=1791408564","url":"https:\/\/www.stickfiguremailorder.com\/products\/the-preakness-s-t-7-record","provider":"Stickfigure Mailorder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
