Sexy Ester – Sequins, Sin, & Appetite
Slothtrop Music is pleased to announce the newest national release from award winning band Sexy Ester, "Sequins, Sin, & Appetite". The 5 piece combo's music continues to grow as they explore the depths of musical culture this time trading the streets of their beloved Shermer, Illinois for for the Rat Pack hedonism of a Las Vegas imbued with the dark corners, dirty streets, and glaring neon of Sin City, this release is a late night roll of the dice that always comes up a winner.
Dan Kennedy – Commit to the Bit
Commit To The Bit by long-time Madison side man Dan Kennedy, takes the meaning of “solo effort” to a whole new level. In addition to writing, performing, recording,, and mixing all of the tracks, he actually built the bass and guitar used for most of the tracking. This sophisticated blues/pop sound is a bit of a departure for Kennedy and seems to take place in an alternate universe where Steely Dan was started by Robert Cray, Lyle Lovett, and Billy Gibbons instead of Donald Fagen, Walter Becker, and Denny Diaz.
