It’s been fifteen years since Big Stick’s last proper record release. That’s an even longer period of time than some winged cicada bugs take to rise from the deep depths of earth and sing their noisy repertoire of songs. Their dynamic duo of John Gill and Yanna Trance are pleased to finally have a new album’s worth of material to share. This new release is simply titled LP. It’s a long playing collection of Big Stick selections cultivated over several years.
This release is a joint effort between Big Stick’s new Drag Racing Underground record label and Forte Music Distribution. Gill and Trance performed most of the vocals and instrumentation on the album’s fifteen tracks. Some of their musician friends appear on select songs. Much of the recording was done at their own studio, using a vintage Otari MX-70 16-track analog tape machine. Big Stick are self-produced. Gill plays guitar and keyboard. Trance performs percussion, bass, and keyboards. Both of the duo write and compose.
This new album includes a retrospective collage of photographs and images, along with photos of Gill’s and Trance’s artwork as well as liner notes describing curious facts and trivia related to the duo and the featured songs. Both formats include a special bonus Some Of The Best Of Big Stick EP CD with ten “classic” Big Stick tracks.
