I mixed an album and we are releasing it. This is the first thing I ever really mixed, so I'm pretty proud of how it turned out. Looking forward to releasing live albums that I also record in the future.

LIVE ALBUM, BAYBEEEEEE!

Wrong Life ‘Live at Reggies’ is out now digitally and on limited edition CD via Wicked Opossum Records: https://wronglife.bandcamp.com/album/strangers-live-at-reggies

Recorded live at Reggies in Chicago on December 17th 2022 at the release show for ‘Starstruck: A Tribute to The Kinks’ (alongside Riverboat Gamblers, The Figbeats, Publicity Stunt and The Mizzerables), and released today on Dave Davies’ birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE DAVE!

Features Stephan (Nervous Passenger) on drums, Tim (Hospital Job/Horrible Things) on lead guitar, and Noelle (Rational Anthem) on bass, alongside my grotty self.

The album also has both the Jamie Ward stereo mix and Shel Talmy mono mix of the version of ‘Strangers’ I did for The Kinks tribute comp.

I'll have a bunch of copies of the CD over here soon, so best holding out for a wee bit if you dwell in the UK or Europe and want one so you can save a few cheddz on postage.

Massive thanks to Mike at Wicked Opossum Records for putting the whole thing together. He truly is the king of South Bend, Indiana.

Enjoy!
