INDEPENDENT STORE EXCLUSIVE RELEASE AVAILABLE NOW:

STONE AXE: Stone Axe II (Vinyl Only)



STONE AXE was formed in Bremerton Washington in 2008 by Tony Reed(Mos Generator/Treepeople) and Dru Brinkerhoff (The Swinos)with the intention of recreating and preserving the sounds of rock music from the 1970s. In 2009 Stone Axe released their first full length ‘STONE AXE’ and then the tour EP ‘EXTENDED PLAY’ in time for their first US tour which included Mykey Haslip(drums) & Mike DuPont(bass). During the first year they also released three 7” singles and a 10” vinyl ep. The new album ‘STONE AXE II’ keeps the spirit of the 1970s fully intact. If ‘self titled’ is 1968-71, then ‘stone axe II’ is ‘71-’74.

If you were to hear this album without the aid of any background information on its origins, your instincts would probably tell you it was 60's-era rock, carefully unearthed from the vaults of an overlooked rock band along the lines of Free or Cream.  The fact that it's a new recording is a testament to the precision with which the group crafts not only their songs, but their sound. If you feel like you've exhausted your classic rock options, this is a great place to get a fresh start.

It's hard to think of a bigger musical swap than relocating your band from  Chattanooga, Tennessee to Baltimore, Maryland. But in 2004, that's exactly  what J-Roddy Walston and the Business did. For the group--known for their infectious brand of no-frills Americana rock--it was quite the change. But since then, they've adjusted to their new locale and have garnered a reputation for their live shows, where they've been known to spontaneously break out into rowdy covers of Queen's 'Fat Bottomed Girls,' [audience interaction required.] A few weeks before their SXSW 2010 performance, Spinner asked the band whether the nightly Southern-style goal of their live shows was to get crowds singing, dancing, and drinking. To which they answered: "Yes. Preferably all at the same time."
