And Now... Le Switch

The band's debut LP, And Now… Le Switch, is being released September 30th, 2008 on Autumn Tone Records, the label-arm of popular music blog An Aquarium Drunkard. And Now… Le Switch was produced and mixed by drummer Joe Napolitano – with additional mixing conducted by head Radar Brother, Jim Putnam. The record is sure to bring to mind early-1970's records like Ram, Nilsson Schmilsson, Muswell Hillbillies and Leon Russell's Carney mixed with contemporaries such as Dr. Dog. The new record puts the lyrical intensity of signer Aaron Kyle against the backdrop of the band's well-drawn arrangements. At times the lyrics are even sensitive and longing – but the beer and bourbon still soak the sound.

Reviews: 

"I'd recommend Le Switch to anyone with a palate for boozy rock and roll." LAist.com

"Switch sports some ragged, booze-soaked vocals courtesy of one Aaron Kyle, and plays with a bouncy rock 'n' roll soul that commands attention." – Performer Magazine

"[Le Switch] make wonderfully bedraggled, fall-down-the- stairs pop music just the way you like it. If I had this EP on vinyl, it would have deep grooves worn into it from being played so damn frequently." – Radio Free Silver Lake
