Old Soldiers – Soon is a Long, Long Time
These 10 songs from Andrew Stern’s Old Soldiers are full of hooky guitars and stories of late night romance… Old Soldier feature James Rohr on keys, Greg Loughman on left handed bass, and Jared Seabrook on drums.
Andrew Stern has multiple bands, and this one’s a vehicle for songs that inhabit the rock zone (think Stones/Waits/The Band). While working on this batch of songs Andrew recorded two other full length albums of instrumental compositions. This is the only project to date that features his voice!
New Sleepyhead video
Some people can make rocking look fun. Check out the newest Sleepyhead video, recorded at the mighty Q.
Nice write up in AVClub, too boot.
Jeff Mellin featuring Jenny Dee: Don’t Go Crazy Before I Do!
In 2013 Jeff Mellin swung into Q to record this snappy retro duet. Ed V and the Mayor worked this song, which also features Tim Gearan, Andy Plaisted, Eric Salt, Abbey Barrett, and Phil Aiken. Jeff is responsible for the great look and feel of the Q-Dee Rock and Soul 45 series, and he also designed our flaming tape machine T-shirts.
Tanya Donelly – Swan Song Series
Tanya says this about the last installment of the Swan Song series:
So, last official volume, but not the last songs. More to come, as they come: erratically, sporadically, spasmodically.
The songs on these five volumes range wildly in feel and texture… Tanya’s bandcamp pages are rich with notes on the song writing, recordings, and the musicians she collaborated with on this project. We were lucky host her a few times throughout the recording of what are supposed to be her last official releases. We certainly hope there are more!
