"Brand New"
Honey Made
Austin, Texas-based funk and soul band Honey Made follows up their recent EP, "Couple Few," with their debut studio full length album "Brand New," out Nov. 6.
Honey Made is a nine piece band, and an Austin staple. They have uniquely honed their sound on stage and on many tours, before coming upon the final sonic signature. Willie Barnes II, vocalist and songwriter, comments, "A lot of soul bands are trying to recreate a specific old school sound so much that there is no originality or advancement in the genre. This is a soul record on steroids."
"Infinite Jess"
Jess Kivel
New Feelings
Jesse Kivel, of Kisses and Princeton, returns with a new project under his own name of thoughtful and smooth existential jams -- his solo debut, "Infinite Jess," out Nov. 13.
"Infinite Jess" puts more of him -- the real Jesse, as man, father, son, brother -- into the open world than ever seen, or heard, before. So evocative. So instantly transportive. The music and pitch perfect arrangements -- moody, playful, atmospheric, and unpredictable -- are the vehicle for time travel and producer Joey Genetti, along with some of the most dynamic technicians and stylists in LA's contemporary music scene help infuse a rich, deeply felt sense of purpose and shape to every moment.
