2010 is turning out to be a pretty exciting year for new music and new bands already and today, we have another act to introduce you to. No No Knots are a Cincinnati group that is starting to get some attention after a couple of live shows and whether or not you have heard the name, you probably don’t know much about them yet.

An easy way to sum up this new outfit is that it is a new project of Cincinnati singer Molly Sullivan and features members of Peter Adams band, The Nocturnal Collective and The Happy Maladies. But the way I prefer to describe this effort is in a simple phrase, “untapped potential.” I say that before hearing a single note or lyric from No No Knots, and base it solely on the collective talent that is assembled here. As great at Peter Adams is as a songwriter and artist in general, I was always equally impressed by the company he kept. In addition, Molly Sullivan seems like an artist that is easy to enjoy in a solo format, but becomes a star backed by a band like this.

Some of these thoughts were confirmed after watching a few video clips of the band performing during a recent Southgate House show, but I am still calling this effort “untapped potential” until I hear some studio recordings. That said, you should certainly check out a those video clips right here, and let us know what you think of No No Knots. Here is one of my early favorites.
