New Record, New Band, and New Site


Today is the day we all have been very excited about. State Bird’s Mostly Ghostly is now available for purchase. We posted a few videos in the media section from their fall tour and a live video of them preforming A Voice As Old As Fire acousticly. Also the press just keeps rolling in.

Perfect Porridge:

The frantic call and response, energetic clapping and horn charts make me want to jump on stage and rock out. Unfortunately I’m sitting in a cube with headphones on scaring my neighbors.

Jonk Music

Mostly Ghostly presents glorious, full-bodied tracks that swell with a plethora of instrumentation and gospel-like choruses.

The Record Machine is proud to welcome Interstates to the label. We are really excited to have them join our family. They are going to be releasing their debut full length in the spring. They will be on tour with Foxhole in May. There are a few rough mixes of songs on their website at www.interstatesmusic.com.

Also welcome to our new website. Enjoy!

    The Winston Jazz Routine off tour, Every Gentle Air & State Bird press


    The Winston Jazz Routine have returned from tour. The tour was a sucess. Thank you if you made it out to one of the shows. They played some great shows with Husband and Wife, State Bird, Minus Story, Darling at Sea, Olympic Size, Comrade, Homer Hicolm and The Rocket Boys and probably others I am leaving out.Their new record is slated for a May release. We are really excited for you to be able to hear some of the new songs.

    Every Gentle Air has been getting some nice press. AP Magazine(Fall Out Boy is on the cover) was nice enough to review Part 2. They gave them 4 out of 5 stars and called it “Inventive, creative, and never lacking in left turns.”

    State Bird is working on their follow up to their self released Marching Thru The Wilderness.
    They have been getting great reviews for Marching. Check out new reviews at Silent Uproar and Neufutur. Everything we have heard about the new record only makes us more excited for it.

    The Pitch Weekly and Jason Harper were nice enough to comment on us for their hopes for the new year. Hopefully we will finally put out a another KC band in 2007.
