Label: Organic Spark
Album: Garage Booze Vol. 2 (OSPK-075)
Brief Description: Blues riffs full of swagger and maybe a few boilermakers. Stomps, claps, and dirty guitars give this album a real swampy attitude. Burns a little at first, but goes down smooth. Partners perfectly with placements that have an emphasis on authenticity and spirit.

Album: Filthy Funk (E&E-027)
Brief Description: Nasty grooves and riffs, performed live in one room while under the influence of archival wax jams, a myriad of inside jokes, and multiple substances of varying legality. Featuring Angie Swan on guitar (David Byrne, Cee Lo). This is some serious funk with deep grooves and jams.

Album: Hip-Hop (ACPM-022)
