Burn On The Bayou review

Check out this sweet review of the CCR tribute we are on.

“Cortez follows this by picking the less known Gloomy. While they move at the same pace as the previous track, they emphasize the doom, and it fairly crushes.”

We’ll take that!

CCR Compilation

Next month Ripple Music will release “Burn on the Bayou: A Heavy Underground Tribute to Creedence Clearwater Revival” tribute album. This massive 32-track compilation presents reimagined Creedence Clearwater Revival songs by bands from Ripple Music’s past and present roster such as War Cloud, Kind, Great Electric Quest, High Priestess, Thunder Horse, Void Vator, Stonebirds, JPT Scare Band, Cities of Mars, special guest Kyle Shutt of The Sword and more.

About the compilation, Ripple Music label founder Todd Severin says: “I chose Creedence Clearwater Revival for our first compilation because I wanted to do something different. I didn’t want to do Sabbath, Lizzy or such because bands have such reverence for them that they would turn in their best take on Sabbath or Lizzy. I wanted a band with amazing songs, that the bands could make their own, and boy did they. Plus Creedence Clearwater Revival is rooted in the sludge of the swamp, an aesthetic that plays well to stoner/doom bands. And to really bring out the swamp in the songs, the whole project was mastered by Kent Stump of the legendary swamp rockers Wo Fat.”

New show

Hey Philly, we’re headed you’re way. It’s been a while, we can’t wait to see ya!

Posted in Uncategorized | Tagged | Comments Off on New show

Next show

This is our next show. It is for Bone Up Brewing Co.’s 7th birthday. Four days, 17 bands, and a metric shit ton of beer (that’s an exact scientific measurement). Every band playing will also have a corresponding beer that has been brewed for them. Ours will be a Mexican chocolate stout, called God Of Night. The show is free. We play on Sunday 8/27.

******************

From Bone Up:

We’re turning SEVEN! Join us 8/24-8/27 for our biggest, bestest festival yet: we’ve got 17 bands performing over the course of four days, and we’re brewing up a special collab beer for each and every one of ‘em. We’ll host our favorite food vendors, plus we’ll be releasing limited edition merch: special mugs, fresh t-shirts, stickers, koozies, patches, and more! We’ll be continuing our tradition of live screen printing exclusive, never-before-seen BUBco designs.

As always, this event is open to the public and free to attend! Well-behaved dogs and kids are welcome in the beer garden (keep in mind that the evening music sets aren’t the most family appropriate), and our full taproom will be open as well.
