STIMULI - They Are We CD

 

Bay Area rock band STIMULI create thoughtful and heavy rock music about the human condition, delivered through Jimmy Tomahawk's melodic and edgy vocals and spacious and heavy guitar riffing, Tai Hake's solid and snarling bass tones, and Cole Andrew's intricate and powerful drumming. The album is a winding 11-track explosion of the trio's dense, ambitious, and fiercely original sound. In April 2018, the band generated buzz when they released their debut single and music video for the album’s title track, “They Are We.” The single knocks out a Hard Rock, radio-friendly sound that also exposes the introspective themes of understanding and empathy that permeates their new album.

Bruce C. Stevenson - Thanking Jupiter CD and Vinyl LP

 

Bruce C. Stevenson finally makes his solo debut with “Thanking Jupiter” after 15 years as the principal shaker with the Bay Area band, The Alien Cowboys. There are seven original songs with three outstanding cover songs, “Nature’s Way” by Spirit, “Huckleberry” by Peter Jameson, and “It’s Getting Better” by The Beatles. All tracks demonstrate the range of pop styles by Stevenson and his collaborator, the Grammy Award winner Bill Drescher, who also produced and engineered the project.
