This past Saturday Robert Eisenbraun, Joel Schuman, and Ben Bruckner were at North Park University’s Homecoming Block Party, and they brought good news!
Joel Schuman and his band, Project Stinkeye, will be joining the label with an unnamed release still being recorded by Mr. Eisenbraun.
Our table was next to a man selling frames and across the aisle from a woman selling lotions with her toddler son.
We released our first sampler at the block party, too, giving away all 64 of them for free, and meeting many good people–some of whom may join the label in future endeavors. The sampler was a single-page packet design and most of the tracks were from our four upcoming albums. We will be making many more samplers in the next week and anyone we see will be welcome to them.
This is the sampler’s track list:
- Project Stinkeye – Time
- Joe Davis – Goodbye, Babylon!
- Joe Davis – Fireflies
- Ben Bruckner – Speak A Word
- Ben Bruckner – Logos
- Electrohome – The Places I’ve Been
- Men of Easy Company – Ideal Darling
Saturday, October 3rd, we will be representing ourselves at North Park University’s Homecoming Block Party from 10:30am to 1:30pm. Joe, Ben, and company will probably stop by for a while, and there will be some free buttons and a sampler of the four albums in the works at Lonely Monster, as well as the usual old CD’s, in case you don’t have them already. Stop by and say hello to Robert. He will appreciate it. If you ask, he will have possible cover art for future albums and a new release to show off.

We aren’t done yet! We’ve released two albums this year, but we plan to get Ben Bruckner’s untitled set of songs and two albums by Joe Davis released in the next three months.
Once Bruckner returns from his youth work in Alaska, we will tackle his baker’s dozen songs.
Davis and Robert Eisenbraun recorded over a dozen tunes in the last two weeks, and Eisenbraun is in the process of mixing and adding colour to them. The CD designs need to be worked out, as well, and we will plan a release date and show to go with them soon.
There is also another secret release in the works… Right now it’s on a need-to-know basis, folks!
