Dave Zoller — Evidence: The Music of Thelonious Monk
Evidence: The Music of Thelonious Monk is collection of 18 pieces by a giant of jazz, spanning two CDs and three vinyl albums. It is also a career summation by the 75-year old Dallas, Texas-based composer and pianist Dave Zoller, who recorded half of this work in 2012, then suffered the first in a series of three debilitating strokes. Five years later, Zoller recovered and recorded the rest of EVIDENCE.

Republican Hair — High & Tight / The Prince & The Duke
Soul Step Records initially released four tracks off the HIGH AND TIGHT EP with SSR-014. Fans couldn’t get enough of Republican Hair. The limited edition vinyl quickly sold out. It was some time later when SSR was approached again from Republican Hair, with a pair of songs off a very different sounding – The Prince and the Duke. The single “Miss Prince” was put out on vinyl into the world…it was an even bigger hit. This track was favorited and even highlighted by NPR & Consequence of Sound.
Now comes the LP of all of High & Tight & The Prince and the Duke.
Andrew McKeag Band
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.
