Regina is loaded with talented musicians. Over the last two or three years I've gotten to be friends with many really cool people in the local music scene. Recently, two albums were released by two very good friends of mine, so here's the dirt on each one.
SuperJuice
This past Friday, my good friends in SuperJuice (Christofur Real, Jai Mo, Ryan, and Todd) released a 5 song demo produced by Kyle from Parlor Trixx. I can't believe how great the sound quality is. Kyle did such an unbelievable job. But the sound quality would mean nothing if the songs were bad. Fortunately, this is definitely not the case. Chris and Jai are really talented songwriters and their songs are full of hooks, energy, and clever lyrics. Plus Chris' hidden acoustic track is a pleasant change of pace. I imagine a CD release party is going to occur sometime in the near future so stay tuned. superjuicerocks.com
Chad Kichula and Redwater Records
Chad and I go back about 10 years or so. When I first met him I honestly wasn't a big fan of his, but after bumping into him again a year or two ago he's besome a really good friend of mine. I think the thing that forged our friendship was our love of music. It's funny how things work out sometimes. And now he is a very talented singer-songwriter. He just relaesed his debut album which is available on a record label that he spearheaded, Redwater Records. Other artists on this label include the Nancy Ray-Guns, and New Star Killer. Chad's songs are very rootsy in nature, influenced by the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Steve Earle. However, he also has songs that are more rockabilly-tinged and songs that wouldn't be out of place on a U2 album. At the end of this month there is an official launch party and showcase for Redwater Records, featuring its roster of talent. And I believe yours truly may be hosting this event. Below is the details according to redwater-records.com.
"Redwater Records will be having its Label Release Party on October 28th. 2005 at the Exchange. The Nancy Ray-guns will be joined by Chad Kichula and New Star Killer for this event. CD's and Merchandise will be available, and prizes will be awarded during the evening. Doors open at 8pm ."
