A House for Lions
A House For Lions' 5-track EP "I Want Us to Be Remembered" is a blend of some stuff you feel like you may have heard, mixed with some other stuff you definitely have not. Fair enough? This isn't a music review, so much as point of interest, which means you're going to have to head over to Bandcamp and check them out for yourself.
If you dig on steel guitar and harmonica accompanying a drifter's dreams about the open road, his love for music, and how great if feels playing music on the open road, then you'll probably enjoy "I Want Us to Be Remembered." This EP has some acoustic and some electric, including guest pedal steel on "Come on Let's Go."
saQi - Heart's Castle (EP)
The latest release from saQi is a a 5-track EP called Heart's Castle.
"The album is ... a humble offering from my heart to yours and serves as a dedication to my father and the beautiful life that he lived." - saQi
Released in May 2010, the album features vocalists: Kyrstyn Pixton, Luz Alena Mendoza, Christopher Worth, Cohen, Leslie Kernochan and additional musicians: Russel Scott & Chet Lyster. Album artwork by: Dee aka "Sweet Anomaly."
Stand-out tracks include Cancion del Corazon featuring Luz Alena Mendoza on vocals and some of saQi's signature trumpet over raw guitar work. Twilight In Bardo (Remix) featuring Kyrstyn Pixton is another of the highlights. Kyrston also lends her vocals to the title track, which itself is an amazing body-moving trip through a mix of emotions. As stated in his dedication to his late father, Heart's Castle is an offering from the heart, and it speaks on many levels to those going through love & loss, reminding us of how great it is to feel the whole spectrum of emotions.
The 5-track EP is available for $5 at bandcamp.com. Click here to preview and download tracks from Heart's Castle.

+ Food Industry
+ Pharmaceuticals
Over 2½ years in the making, this exceptional concept album was conceived and independently produced on a shoe-string budget by musical visionary Shannon Saint Ryan, who astonishingly tracked multiple recording sessions, meticulously scheduled around and in between the hours he spent working a regular full-time day job.
'The T4 Project' contains 10 original songs with lyrics by Strung Out’s Jason Cruz and 8 “pseudo-commercial” interludes that surge with biting social satire and political commentary. The release also features a 24 page graphic novel story-booklet by renowned graphic artist Keith Rosson that delivers a darkly sobering yet ultimately inspiring transcendent message for the modern age.

Sizemix, the Band
This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it is a genre blurring three-piece group consisting of Turntables, Guitar, and Bass. Their resulting sound blends elements of improvisation and their own take on trip-hop/hip-hop/downtempo electronic forms into an original format. Each member brings a unique background and perspective on music to the table, adding to the diverse directions their sound takes, and expanding the possibilities in tonal experimentation. All three members played for 2 years together in Varius Ardis, a five-piece (add trumpet and drums) before forming Sizemix in the Fall of 2002
Summer Circus Highlights
One weekend each Spring, just after the right at the Shell Station, long before you hit the river's edge, a local property owner opens up his land for an all-weekend extravaganza of music, outdoor recreation, and a barter faire to celebrate the oncoming season - The Summer Circus. Started 4 or 5 years ago, the Summer Circus began with a small group of musicians and their close friends taking over a stage nestled in the middle of the Siskiyous for a couple days of music and excess.
