Been a meow-filled week or three over in Berkeley Cat Records international HQ (not an actual place)
Items:
Russ Ellis featured in the New York Times
(wait.. what?!)
Yes Gwendoline, the little paper in New York.
We are delighted, flabbergasted, and pleased.
It’s part of their It’s Never Too Late series,
and you can find this wonderful article by Chris Colin here.
Really an inspiring interview, and the comments are a fun read too.
FAVES new single Never Ending is live in streaming services! And Bandcamp! And here’s a cool video of the guys recording the song.
Matte Martin has a new album coming out in like, minutes! Here’s a fun video preview of what he’s been cooking up for us.
Eric Din has released a new song called Fear Of Everything which is about fear of (wait for it..) everything! Din created this with Jay Lane and Dave Shul, and he’s so excited about it he’s started talking about himself in the 3rd person again. We are concerned. The song is here.
Comeback Pete is on the comeback trail with a massive remix of “Mankind” by the aforementioned Eric Din. A footnote (pun accepted) – Larry Lynch of FAVES added the live acoustic kick drum track to this. With his foot. I note.. ba da ping, I’ll be here all week. Save the planet.
The Uptones recent early recordings album landed in this Brooklyn Vegan list of 64 Essential Ska Albums from-1964 To Present. We are thrilled and honored to be in such fine ska company.
What else?
Vote NO on this stupid CA recall nonsense!!
Lastly, importantly, here are some adorable kittycats watching dominos fall.
That is all.
