PIT ER PAT::
Utterly mesmerizing psych-pop on Thrill Jockey! Pit Er Pat is the duo of Fay Davis-Jeffers and Butchy Fuego. "Pit Er Pat’s recorded output has no easily definable style. It instead represents their evolution as modern musicians...Their musical focus remains firmly grounded in rhythm, while incorporating a strong sense of melody and harmony to dance above the complex rhythms and to stretch the layers." -Thrill Jockey "Davis-Jeffers’s sweet, airy singing threads through her electric piano lines, which sometimes sound like a slowed-down music box; Doran’s melodic bass and Fuego’s bustling, off-kilter drumming give the delicate tunes harmonic heft and anxious energy.” - The Reader

CRAZY DREAMS BAND::
Newest project from Lexie Mountain of Lexie Mountain Boys (called "one amazing stoned communal public patty-cake session" by WFMU). "DUNNO WHO SAW THIS COMING: Lexie Mountain going gut-soul diva--sounding kinda like Patti Smith with her hand planted on her hip--with a sorta funky, partially improvised rock band at her side...as free-form and absurdist as we could hope to expect from a woman who's been slowly forming herself into a matriarch of Baltimore noise." - BALTIMORE CITYPAPER "Classic Americana underground rock moves from a new Baltimore-based project that features Lexie Mountain on vocals alongside Nate Nelson of Religious Knives/Mouthus, Nick Becker, Jake Freeman and Chiara Giovando. The sound is kinda like Royal Trux at their most FM-radio relevant...the songs work from a raggedy Suicide/Springsteen/Flesheaters/The Band base that would combine classic, iconoclastic melodies with weirdly deformed two-note keyboard drones and a fried hayseed basement style that is supremely beguiling. Can’t think of a recent release that so beautifully walks the line between classic rock and cultic underground confusion." - VOLCANIC ... Voted BEST NEW BAND of 2008 by Baltimore Citypaper!

ROBERT AIKI AUBREY LOWE (Lichens)::
"Lichens live is a transfixing experience, looping wordless vocals into curtains of drone. Lowe adds acoustic and electric guitars, percussion and other effects to create alternately thick and delicate works." - Kranky

SPECTRE FOLK::
"Spectre Folk is a one-man operation consisting of Pete Nolan (drums for the Magik Markers, Shackamaxon, GHQ, Virgin Eye Blood Brothers, Wooden Wand & the Vanishing Voice, etc.)...Ranging from atmospheric instrumental explorations to dark and moody sing-alongs...An astute listener will detect shades of both Jandek's loosely organized outsider folk and the free-wheeling ebullience of Ben Chasny both independently and simultaneously throughout..." - 3Lobed
