My label, theory 8 records, announced today the addition of And The Relatives to our roster. Most exciting is the co-release venture along with yk records who will be providing limited edition packaging for the physical release.

I have been a fan of And The Relatives for some time now and am very excited about this release. Here are official details…

And The Relatives to Release New Album on theory 8 and yk records in February 2010.

Nashville based trio, And The Relatives, are teaming up with theory 8 and yk records to release their debut LP in February of 2010. The band has two previous EP releases, Talking to My Fingers and Animals, the latter of which is available now for a free download on Bandcamp.

The band will be performing this week at the 2009 CMJ Music Marathon twice, once on Wednesday night, Oct 21st, at The Charleston in Brooklyn at 11pm and again, opening the After The Jump Showcase at The Cake Shop at 7pm on Thursday, Oct 22nd.

This marks the first co-release for theory 8 records, sharing the duties with yk records. The co-release venture will provide top of the line art direction and limited edition packaging from yk while theory 8 will handle the digital distribution and marketing.

It’s true! I’ve never had a “press announcement” before but it’s good to get the word out.

Every year I post a mix for Halloween - creepy, spooky, eerie, ominous songs to set the mood for a gathering or just for hyping yourself up. This year tends to lean a bit more on the creepy side of things but it works!

in regards to the Mayan calendar ending in 2010: “I note that my desk calendar ends much sooner, on December 31 2009, but I do not interpret this as a prediction of Armageddon. It is just the beginning of a new year.”
