The Stillmen

Band,
Rock

The Stillmen have released two vinyl e.p.s' and now they have just released a full length CD entitled Go! Go! Go!. The CD has fourteen originals and one cover which was recorded, mixed and mastered on vintage tube equipment from the 50's and early 60's. Most of the songs were recorded at The Studio That Time Forgot with Kevin Ink and the rest were recorded by Deke Dickerson. Four of the songs came from the Stillmen's Leaving Town EP with a new vocal track. Two songs are from the first Stillmen EP but were completely re-recorded for this CD. The band used a number of techniques to try to give each song its' own sound as well as the fact that the different studios each added their own touch. The intent was to make a recording that would keep one's attention throughout the CD as well as contain great singles. The Stillmen believe that they have created one of the best Rockabilly CDs around. The Stillmen have been developing their own sound amongst today's bands. They use two electric guitars in their own way on songs like "2 O'Clock Girl", "Why Am I Blue", "Cute Little Baby" and "Lost Girl." They went for the classic sound of bass, electric guitar and acoustic on "Delta King." Some of their lyrics are short stories while others are tales of lost love. Characters from one song will pop-up again in others. Joanne Vanden Broek from San Ferancisco's Blue Bell Wranglers, helped out with some backing vocals. The Stillmen have been together since 1996. Recently Preston O'Lary replaced Jay Laude on drums. They have played Tom Ingram's Viva Las Vegas and they are booked to play on the bill for Hemsby #22. In the last year they have played New York, New Jersey, Pittsburgh, Hollywood, San Diego, San Jose, Las Vegas, Sacramento, Seattle and much more. In 1999 Star Tone plans to push this CD towards charting on the Americana Stations in the USA as well as college radio on the West Coast. Hepcat records is currently carrying a large first shipment of this new CD. Their address is: P.O. Box 1108 Orange, California 92856. (Source: http://www.rockabillyhall.com/Stillmen.html)
