Artists:
Bobbie Peru
Bobbie Peru were created in January 2006. The lead singer/guitarist
relocated to the UK from Atlanta, Georgia to continue his musical
career with Storm Records as a recording artist with Adom. After three
successful European/American tours, and album release (Idiot Savant)
the band split due to creative differences. Bert (Lead Vocal/Guitarist)
then gathered a collection of local musical talents (Ding - Bass (PJ
Harvey/The Fall/Frank Black) and Dr.E - Drums) to form Bobbie Peru, and
began to blow minds. They cook up a particularly demented stew with
their ever-changing musical palette, which is an unpredictable mix of
stabbing guitars, social commentary and a rhythm section coming through
like a freight train. The result: some of the most dynamic, catchy and
distinctive compositions that will infiltrate your mind and encompass
your soul. Live they are a witches brew of destabilized rock and roll,
randomness, style and raw energy, that will leave you breathless and
begging for more.
Their debut album release 'Social Suicide' followed the SOLD OUT Single
‘1971’.

Slim Francis
Slim Francis is a hard-hitting rock outfit from New York City whose
arching melodies and intricate textures recall the legendary artists of
the seventies. The Williamsburg, Brooklyn based band is led by Aric
Carroll, an extraordinary songwriter and vocalist, whose eclectic
guitar stylings and soulful vocals tell haunting tales of life and love
in the big city. The band is comprised of drummer Falcon
Valdez from Houston, TX and Bert Genovese (Adom, Bobbie Peru) of
Manchester, U.K. on the bass guitar. On the majority of Slim Francis'
recordings you will find the renowned drummer Matt Johnson (Rufus Wainwright, Jeff Buckley) laying down the beat along with bassist/multi-instrumentalist, Steven Brown (Antony & the Johnsons, Jay Benett). Steven is featured on the entire Slim Francis catalogue to date. The bands latest release "Love Life Pt.1" features bassist Catherine
Popper (Ryan Adams, Willie Nelson). Slim Francis has
been building a loyal following in the U.K. and U.S. through a steady
schedule of touring. On their most recent U.K. tour, the band sold out of their highly regarded "On With the Show" and
"Everything Is Just Perfect" albums. Stay tuned for the bands upcoming
Vinyl 7" picture disc featuring their newest single "Move Right
Through".

James Catholic
It is with sincere purpose that extremes flourish in Mr. Catholic’s
muse; and drama arrives in the form of distinct vocal characters under
the restrictions of elementary modern form. After all, it’s dramatic
range what attracts Mr. Catholic to the Matt Johnsons (The The), Peter
Murphys, Stooges, and Pixies of the world. “Spontaneous, eccentric, romantic, and brooding ...think Scott Walker, Julee Cruise, and T-Rex."
