If Ennio Morricone would play Game Boy, and had a second band member that played Banjo and were filled with the soul of the south; It would have been one hell of a combination...
... instead of being anything near this combination, Bud Melvin exceds genres and definitions and simply are: Bud Melvin!
You were awesome even before Role Models casset came into our world Bud, but now your music is the true depiction of music with soul...

Sssk #32 Bud Melvin - "Business" I'm just going to come right out and say it. Albuquerque is damn lucky to have this guy in town. How many banjo-pedalsteel-gameboy-hacking-baribasssinging musicians are there these post-Dark Ages-days?? None, and Japan doesn't have him,,you do. Go see this guy live after he returns from the Prague hinterland and that Austin fest. This limited ed. business card has 1 song on it, but i'll be damned if you don't break your 'repeat' function.
1 goddamn $ if you catch me on the street. or free with any order!!! or sweet-talk the man himself and see where it gets you.Limited to 100+ copies.
Bacon, pancakes and local freaky music in the morning
