*Karyn Kuhl Band Drops Cover of Donna Summer Classic “I Feel Love” as Limited-Edition
Lathe-Cut 7″ Single*

Hoboken, NJ — October 9, 2020 — Wading through the darkness, inequality, hatred,
divisiveness, suddenly you feel something… different… bubbling up. You feel… love. And the
pulsing soundtrack is the Karyn Kuhl Band’s thrilling new cover of the disco-electro classic “I
Feel Love.” The song is being issued by Dromedary Records as a strictly limited-edition
lathe-cut 7″ single, with complimentary digital download.

Donna Summer’s 1977 recording of “I Feel Love,” which she co-wrote with the song’s producers
Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, hit No. 1 in six different countries, while becoming a top-10
smash in the U.S. But its influence has long surpassed the chart success, with artists such as
David Bowie, Blondie, and Brian Eno citing the musical innovations. The Karyn Kuhl Band’s
fresh take honors the legendary record while adding their own unique, hypnotic rock twist.
Insistent, metallic, garage-rock guitar announces that this isn’t your mother’s “I Feel Love,” just
before Larry Heinemann (Springhouse, Blue Man Group) on bass and Jonpaul Pantozzi on
drums lock into a spellbinding groove. Clear and cool, Karyn’s vocals rise to the top of the mix,
while her guitar trades licks with James Mastro’s (the Bongos, Ian Hunter, reunited Mott the
Hoople). Mastro ups the delightfully strange quotient with touches of keyboard and vocoder.
Wild sounds spin and swirl for 5+ minutes — are the aliens landing in that last bit?!? — before
you’re left spent, on the floor, while over on the turntable the needle clings to that lock groove
for dear life.

“I Feel Love” was produced, recorded, and mixed by Larry Heinemann at his Rabbit Hole studio
in Jersey City, NJ, and mastered by Ray Ketchem (Guided by Voices, Alex Chilton, Luna) at
Magic Door Recording in Montclair, NJ.

Karyn Kuhl first received national acclaim for her early bands Gut Bank and Sexpod, growing
out of the vibrant Hoboken music scene and the legendary club Maxwell’s. (“Gut Bank’s The
Dark Ages is one exceptional debut album.” —Robert Palmer, New York Times ) With her
current group, Karyn rocks more commandingly than ever before. “I Feel Love” follows the
band’s debut album Songs for the Dead (2013) and the EPs The Stars Will Bring You Home
(2016) and Hey Kid (2019).

In 2017, “Say Goodbye” from Songs for the Dead was featured on
the Netflix series Gypsy , and in 2019, their stand-alone single “Be Your Friend” was included on
the Freeform television network hit Good Trouble . In 2020, the band contributed two songs to
the Talk – Action = Zero fundraiser compilations organized by Rough Trade Publishing and
Bank Robber Music. For vol. 1, benefiting the Black Visions Collective, Kuhl submitted her
anthemic track “It’s Over,” for which she also directed a stirring, call-to-action music video. On
vol. 2, exclusive track “The Tower” benefited Spread The Vote, working toward empowerment at
the polls. Currently, the band is working on a new 5-song EP, to be titled HOME:SICK .

Thanks to Tom at Look At My Records for their premiere of *Thanks For The Guitar, Mommy* by Cathedral Ceilings, which is out tomorrow.

“The two songs clock in at under three minutes combined, but their brevity and immediacy are key parts of their strengths. They both hone in on the kind of infectious and melodic guitar hooks that are unrelenting and fast, allowing each song’s catchy riffs and rhythms to fester.”

We are beyond stoked to let you know about our newest band: *Cathedral Ceilings*.

All three of these guys would bristle at the term “New Jersey punk supergroup,” so we’ll just tell you who they are: Ralph from Stuyvesant on guitar and vocals, Nick from Overlake/Mr. Payday on drums, and Tom from Mr. Payday on bass. They got together with the idea of jamming as a side project, and pretty soon they were blasting out lightning-fast songs filled with power and singalong hooks. As their bio says, “Fueled by Ralphie’s infinite trove of riffs and melodies (and more beer), the songwriting was easy, free, and joyous. Like being teens in a band again, and the songs came just as quick.”

The songs are beastly blasts of bombastic bubblegum, fast and anthemic songs sometimes conceived, written and finished right there in the band’s rehearsal studio in one sitting. You can hear the enthusiasm in the playing, these NJ punk vets playing like it was their first band. It’s as much fun as anything we’ve ever put out.

We’ll be releasing _Thanks For the Guitar, Mommy_, the band’s first single, on limited-edition lathe-cut 7″ as well as all digital formats. The release date is October 23 but we’ll open it up for preorders this week, watch this space for more details.

Thanks to John Pietaro of _The Village Sun_ for his kind review of _Garden Variety Fuckers_:

“_Hall, thriving on his acerbic humor, length of social activism and considerable gift of verse, steps further into the performance-art tradition here, conjuring a working-class hero/antihero for all time.

Erupting continuously with emotive phrases that the FCC has never forgiven, Hall reels the listener in just as the repulsion fades.”

Thanks to *Magnet Magazine* for premiering “Owls,” the latest video from *You, Me, and This Fuckin’ Guy*, directed by Steve Hanft (Beck, The Cure).

John S. Hall explains This Fuckin’ Guy thusly: “I was on Governors Island, being interviewed for a feature in Vice, and I was in a kind of silly mood,” he says. “A dragonfly flew by, and I said, ‘Look at that fucking dragonfly,’ using that silly, Long Island accent. And later that day, I wrote a poem, ‘Dragonfly,’ in that voice. I wrote more and more poems in that voice and named the character This Fuckin’ Guy. I grew up in an Italian neighborhood in New York, and I wrote in the voice of my classmates or Long Island Italians. The accent isn’t authentic, although I’m half Italian. I only ever talk like that in jest. But I thought it was funny to have a guy who was flabbergasted by nature but cursed all the time as part of his natural language. I thought of This Fuckin’ Guy as a nature poet. The album reflects that.”
