Devoting a lifetime to music, he’s performed and written for a slew of bands up and down the West Coast. 2004 saw him join multi-platinum iconic Seattle luminaries The Presidents of the United States of America on guitar. He toured everywhere with the band and remained integral to 2008’s critically acclaimed These Are the Good Times People and Kudos to You! in 2014. During Spring 2016, he dove headfirst into penning ideas for what would become Andrew McKeag Band. It proved to be the right time to launch his next act.
In order to capture this vision, he enlisted the talents of drummer Charlie George and bassist John Krylow and recorded with producer Scott Hackwith [The Ramones] in downtown Los Angeles at Cassette Recordings. Immediately, they tapped into an indescribable and inimitable chemistry. “It was a really great experience,” says Andrew. “We all clicked in the studio and turned out the album quickly.”
The Self-Titled debut album is available on limited edition orange vinyl.
Insanely raw soul from 1971! Extremely rare and being reissued for the first time here. Gloria Barnes teams up with The Ohio Players and Lee Moses to create her only LP, Uptown, that would become highly desirable in the deep soul/funk market and is just now seeing the light of day again in 2017. This is one of those records that all you have to do is drop the needle and you know it’s for real.
Preorder now from Rad Cult on silver vinyl. “Wig Blows Off” clangs and stomps like World War III, “Piss Vader” also does that. Like a Moog piano on the fritz, “Old Man Kid” is like the sounds of World War III on a Psilocybin trip through the history of psychedelic music. If you were to listen to “Eye Panch” on drugs, most of what you heard would be reminisced when the drugs wore off. Were you to ask a seasoned writer to describe what being on acid with weed is like, they could only reply “look up *acid* in the dictionary, friend… next to that you will find a picture of the artist TOBACCO…”
Recorded live at Levon Helm Studios AKA The Barn in Woodstock, NY on August 19, 2016. Live at The Barn is available now! The vinyl master was cut by Clint Holley at Well Made Music, and the LP package includes a download of a digital version of the album. Grab one today!
