about

Earlier this year I had the idea to do an EP of songs inspired by Sigue Sigue Sputnik. I first discovered this band when I was about 15 or 16 and they blew me away. I still play their "Flaunt It" and "Dress For Excess" albums frequently. They looked and sounded like they were from another planet, and that's exactly why I loved them.

In high school I loved these guys so much I tried to style my hair like they did. I also mentioned them in my high school yearbook grad class write-up. To say I was obsessed was an understatement.

So, I used time spent in isolation during Covid 19 to my advantage. I fired up my gear and tried to make a genuine, sincere sonic tribute to these rock and roll aliens. It was a blast to do these songs, and I am super happy with how it turned out. I am especially happy with "Is Anybody Out There?". I think this is one of the best songs I ever wrote.

To be clear, this is not a collection of SSS covers. These are original songs, written and performed by me, all done in their classic style.

Enjoy!
