Lee Miles and the Illegitimate Sons performed this Friday at an outdoor bloc party event in Fort Wayne. Drew of Fahrenheit128.com was on hand to capture a number of beautiful photographs of the set. Thanks Drew.

Today pre-orders are starting for Why Can't I Be Enough, the debut release by our very own Wooden Satellites!

$9.99 - Ships 10/18/08

Why Can't I Be Enough is an album meant to deal with the overlooked thoughts and emotions of Biblical characters. Additionally it seeks to find reconciliation between these and the same feelings of inadequacy and disappointment that echo throughout the modern age.

Musically it is a hybrid of acoustic songwriting and electronic music making, employing layers of guitar and analog synthesizers over electronic beats and textures. The songs have defined verses and choruses, but take time to examine timbres and combinations not often found in the pop world.

The band are also planning a big CD release show at the Pint & Slice in Fort Wayne on October 18th. Stay tuned for more info on that soon!

Just a note to readers and CD Baby users, both Heathen Blux and Pica are now available to purchase from CD Baby. If you'd like to buy direct from the artists, you can still do so by going to the Sixty Years War Shop. Also, keep an eye out for both releases to be available on iTunes in about a months time.

Today we're pleased to announce the addition of local San Diego, CA folk musician, Evyn Oliver to the ranks of our record label. Evyn is currently recording his debut release for the label and will be embarking on a west coast tour in support of the yet-to-be-titled album.


You can listen to rough drafts of a couple of Evyn's songs on his Myspace to give yourself a taste. We'll have more from Evyn in the near future, so keep an eye out.


Those with a keen eye may also have noticed that Alabaster Fox has disappeared from our artists list and has been replaced with a band named, Wooden Satellites. We'll have some big news from them in about a week, if you haven't already caught wind of it.

Until then - visit the shop!
