SGP TCB

Updates on two bands and miscellaneous other details! Hooray!

First, The Name would like to thank Shake it Twice for letting us rock out at Musky’s with them earlier in the month. Despite technical difficulties and human error, we managed to pull off (if we’re being generous) four songs. Two The Name originals and covers of “Summertime” by The Fresh Prince/DJ Jazzy Jeff and “The Way of the World” by Earth Wind and Fire. Luckily there is no audio from the show.  The next step is recording the originals and hitting the open mics.

In addition to a pending The Name release, Meat Without Feet are inching closer to their second release. Another four track EP, WPOP will likely drop within the next month or so. Recording in nearly complete, with only minor touch-ups and mixing left to do.

Friend of the label, Jefim Piekarz, is also hard at work on The Wayward Solider’s debut, which will feature some drum, bass, and keyboard from SGP members.

Black Velvet’s second disc, Reserved, is also perpetually in progress. Someday!

New Blog and New Music…

This is our first blog post for SGP!  Figured a place to keep everyone up to date on the latest SGP projects was in order.

A few things happening…

First, the second SB & the Victor Frankensteins disc is more or less finished.  We’ve decided to delay the release in order to fool around with mixing/master tricks and some new plugins.  All recording is done and at some point we’ll just be satisfied and release it.

Second, the SGP 10th Anniversary album is in the works.  We’re recording one new track, one old unfinished track, and then tacking on some unreleased works from the past.  This will be the first chance to hear some stuff from the abandoned Andre EP, and the rarely talked about Space album.  Thinking about including two “discs” with one greatest hits and one rarities.  The goal is to finish it before the end of 2010 so that it’s still the 10th anniversary…

And finally, The Name is making its debut Wednesday the 25th at an open mic at the Main Pub in Manchester, CT.  Hoping to release a single before or shortly after the performance.
