Kelley Stoltz My Regime

"Kelley Stoltz is one of the millennium's great unsung auteur" UNCUT"Absolute favourite" MOJO "Imagine a Mount Rush-more for California's latter-daygarage rock troubadours_ Stoltz's fase belongs up there" WASHINGTON POST"The remarkable thing about Kelley Stoltz has been how seamlessy he absorbs his influences, finds their essences and out of that irreducable core makes songs that are entirely fresh and new" DUSTED "Perpetually tuneful songs" NEW YORK TIMESKelley Stoltz enters his 20th year in the record business with the release of his 10th full length album, "My Regime". This will be his second release for the Spanish label Banana & Louie after prior albums on Castleface, Third Man Records and Sub Pop. A longtime DIY home recording multi instrumentalist, Stoltz again engineers, mixes and plays all the instruments on the album and his unique brand of "60's/80's" pop, garage-rock and folk sounds seem to have gotten better with age. "My Regime" was recorded during an emotional year that saw him get engaged to marry, his father pass away and his tenure as rhythm guitarist with longtime heroes Echo & the Bunnymen come to and end. Jovial and reflective moods ensued and were put to tape by Stoltz in his Electric Duck Studios at home in San Francisco.The first single "Turning Into You" ponders the delight and soul connections of love, while "2020" asks "have you got what you need to ride it out_ I wish I could see peace in 2020", in reference to the chaotic politics at home. "Fire on Fire" written with his Dad on his mind, and is a big beat slow burner reminiscent of the Church's "Starfish" years.A European and UK tour will coincide with the albums release, and USA dates willbe added in the New Year.
