The Royal Aces New Live Album!

The Royal Aces, from Colorado, have released a new live album, recorded at the Englewood Tavern in Englewood, Colorado, by SG101's own subdigit6. It was a rocking night at the Tavern, and we're glad that it was caught in this recording. There are no overdubs or additional tracks - just the drums, bass, and guitar of the Royal Aces. Available on Bandcamp at www.theroyalaces.bandcamp.com
Thanks!

Waikiki Makaki - My Dad is a Mariner

New release from Waikiki Makaki.

Band leader and currently sole member of the project Vitaly dedicated it to his father who passed away this spring. He was a naval officer, great husband, friend and father and a wonderful person. He is sorely missed.

"This track was written in memory of my father, who left us this spring. I love you dad."
