Here's their bio:

Lamb Handler are a rock and roll band and everything that comes along with that. Loud, Fast, a little sleezy and sometimes inebriated, they make music for us to potentially get speeding ticket’s to or party a little too long into the night. Since releasing their first album, “The Shepherds of Rock” in February 2007 Lamb Handler have received glowing reviews from music critic’s calling them “catchy-as-hell, turbo-pop that’s practically danceable” and “some mystical hybrid of Queens of the Stone Age and Electric Six , this album should probably be kept within reaching distance at a party.” After the release of SOR the band spent most of 2007-08 on the road crafting the rock and roll show you pay for, should get and NEED in these troubling times of Nickelback, Toby Keith and The Jonas Brothers. The Village Idiot said “The live show from this North Carolina Quartet will have you strumming your air guitar, probably a little bit of ass shaking, and a whole lot of drinking.” Lamb Handler played with allot of great band’s this past year like Local H, The Willowz, Veruca Salt, The Griefs, Up With The Joneses, Electric Six and some of their country music heroes like Joe Buck and Bob Wayne. In the summer of 2008 the band went into FatBack studios in Atlanta to record their new album “Jingle Jangle” due to be released January 6, 2009 on Coma Gun Records. This album contains some of the familiar stoner pop SOR was loved for but also shows an influence by some of the underground hillbilly music being made today by artist like Hank III, Bob Wayne and Joe Buck. It may seem like an odd combination but Lamb Handler’s up tempo dance rock combined with old school country music styles create a southern stomp that would make Johnny Cash or Buddy Holly proud. Jingle Jangle is 16 song’s and 55 minutes of pure rock and roll, COME GIT SOME!
