KD records an album and posts it on Bandcamp

[Kevin Davis]

I'm sure a few of you saw me peddle this elsewhere so sorry for the excessive hucking. Recorded this album between June and September of this year. It's the first real full-length creative project I've taken on since my book in 2012, and the first musical project of its sort since 2009. Had a blast making it, wanted to share it with you all:

The band name comes from an early Frasier episode where Niles and Frasier open a snooty restaurant and name it accordingly.

When does the vinyl come out?

Spoiler: show

I am kidding, KD! This sounds great...it sounds quite a bit like other things I've heard before, I am digging it. Influences?

[Kevin Davis]

Thanks! And I'd love to see this pressed on vinyl!

There are a lot of artists that influence/inspire me but I'd say the musicians that most compel me to write are Dylan, Waits, Costello, Mark Knopfler, and Richard Thompson. As a words guy, rap gets me really excited to write too.

[Sgt. Crackpot]

Whew, KD. That's some amazing stuff. Where are your talents on this album? i.e. what parts do you play?

[Kevin Davis]

Thanks, Sarge! I play guitars/bass and sing, and for this particular project, I wrote the songs. My brother played piano/keys, backing vocals, some other weird stuff, and handled the recording/mixing.

Love the guitar playing on this especially. The songs are sharply written and really well performed. And the band name is great

[Ello Sailor]

Damn, KD has fierce picking chops.

[Ello Sailor]

I dig 'Jim Hess...' and 'Wilderness Explorers' the most. Short and sweet. The lyrics are brilliant. Fun vibe.

Thanks guys!
