Back In ’86 is the Expats first release featuring three songs from the Atlanta based group. The song Back In ’86 is a tribute to the music and scene of Richmond, VA from the 80’s until recently. Baptcha’s Song is a true story about my mother-in-law's life in Poland. Abalone City revels in the surf and grit of an ocean town.You all can chime in on comparisons – I am not sure myself – maybe we sound like Camper Van Beethoven or the Police with a violin player. We definitely have an 80’s meets Indy sound.Interestingly, these three songs are the most stylistically diverse and future releases will reflect a slightly heavier sound reminiscent of Hell Mach Four and the Police.ErikThe Expats areFred Denny Bass Guitar and VocalsSeth Gamba Violin and RecordingErik Herndon Guitar and VocalsBeau Hunt DrumsRecorded and mixed by Seth Gamba at his home studio throughout 2011Mastered by Glen Schick in 2012Cover Art by Erik PaynterMoodswing Records ms050 (c) 2012 www.moodswingrecords.com
