The Ataris
Kristopher Roe - Guitar and Vocals, Bryan Nelson - Bass,
Thomas Holst - Guitar, Nick Turner - Drums
from the United States-


The Ataris are four friends creating words and music in the basements and dive bars of the world, while young souls pile into the microphone and spill beer into our effects pedals.
Honest stories and organic sounds, chock full of heart, sincerity and
beautiful mistakes. Played loud and recorded to analog tape.

Sixteen years of traveling the world, several broken down vans and five full length studio albums. The Ataris album "So Long, Astoria" included the tracks "In This Diary" and "The Saddest Song" and sold upwards of 850,000 copies earning the band it's first gold record.

The Ataris' singer/songwriter Kristopher Roe released his first full
length solo acoustic album "Hang Your Head in Hope" in November 2011.

All songs were recorded in one take, no edits, no overdubs, using
vintage 1940's ribbon microphones and a 1948 Gibson J-45 guitar.
The album contains familiar tracks stripped down as well as a several
brand new songs which will later appear on The Ataris forthcoming
album "The Graveyard of the Atlantic" in actual full band
arrangements




California

Dustin Clark - bass, Adam Pfahler - drums, Jason White - guitar & vocals
from San Francisco, CA

Jason White's band California has released a new EP titled California.

The two-song EP, released on April 17th, is now available for purchase (or streaming) on Bandcamp. The tracks are "Same Boat" and "Bad Directions." The EP is available for $2 and is delivered via a digital download in either MP3 or FLAC formats. The album was recorded by Chris Dugan who is also Green Day's recording engineer.

As far as we know, California is a newer side-project band for Jason. We were first made aware of their existence March of 2014. In May of 2014, the band posted on their Facebook page a few photos of them recording an album at Jingletown Recording in Oakland. I'm assuming the two tracks on this EP are from that recording session. Hopefully there are more tracks to come.-
