Feb 20, 2024 | Carrie Akre

Oh wow oh wow oh wow! We’ve gotten to work with some great artists and release some great albums before, but anytime we get to work with Carrie Akre… oooh good times!

Today we’re announcing the pre-order campaign for Carrie Akre‘s Home. Her first solo album, Home. Originally released in summer of 2000, this album really showcased Carrie’s songwriting and stylistic approaches. Full of soul and heart and honest feelings, tied together with beautiful melodies.

We’ve put together an excellent pre-order campaign full of some great reward perks that we think will help get you excited for this release. We’ve got colored vinyl! Show tickets! Handwritten lyrics! Test Pressings! Show posters! & more to help us reach our goal of getting this all together and into your hands!

We greatly appreciate your interest and contribution in helping to make this happen.

Thank you so much for your time and support in helping get the word out.

Live at The Crocodile Cafe Back to Belltown

Dec 18, 2023 | Live At The Crocodile Cafe


The Crocodile Cafe first opened its doors in 1991 and quickly became a fixture in the Seattle music scene. Known for helping develop and showcase some of the finest talent over years (decades, really) The Croc established itself as THE place to play. Part of what made it such a great place to play was in large part thanks to Jim Anderson, sound guy extraordinaire. Jim was the official house sound guy for the club almost from the very beginning.

Dedicated to making sure the room had the best and most dialed in sound possible, Jim worked tirelessly night after night working to provide the best possible experience to whichever band crossed his stage.

In 1996, in collaboration with PopLlama Records, The Crocodile released the Bite Back compilation comprised of live recordings from bands such as Mudhoney, PUSA, The Minus 5, Citizens Utilities, Built to Spill, & so many more. This compilation sparked an idea that stayed with Jim over the years and finally around 2004, technology allowed Jim to put these ideas into plan… offer multi-track recordings of sets to the bands as they came through. Helping to capture the essence of a band and a sound that made it all so great.

Latest release efforts from Latent Print Records… returning to the Tri-Cities scene with Old Friendly & Schedule!

In 1997 Old Friendly released their album. Full of beautifully arranged stripped down versions of Small, Narrow View, and Blue Sky Law songs as well as brand new songs that blended in seamlessly to create an album that speaks to long drives, spending time on the back porch, and waxing poetic about relationships.

Hear Old Friendly here.

Jan 1992 Schedule formed. Bringing Joe Dulaney, George Morey, Dean Smith, & Jade Devitt together. Building song after song in jam space in a clogger dance studio in Kennewick. Anyone familiar with the band knows the dynamic angularity and intense ferociousness trapped in those songs. Stretching beyond the walls of the Tri-Cities scene, they played throughout Washington state, had songs included on comps from a label out of San Francisco, and managed to secure a slot at the legendary, C/Z sponsored Indian Summer Festival.

Hear Schedule here.

 

The Divorce & Slender Means Announcement

The Divorce & Slender Means Announcement

Feb 19, 2022 | The Divorce & Slender Means

Oh man oh man oh man! Finally! After what seems like a million years, finally get to announce the vinyl campaign for The Divorce‘s The Gifted Program & Slender Means‘ Neon & Ruin!
 
We planned for this to happen in 2020 to coincide with the 15 year anniversary of both of these records but that whole pandemic thing slowed things down just a touch. So here we are on their 17th year anniversaries, where they are now old enough to donate blood, fly a helicopter, and see one of those NC-17 movies. You take the wins where you can.
The Divorce’s 2nd album, The Gifted Program is filled with smart pop songs laced with catchy riffs and snide lyrics. Emotive, bold, and brilliantly exuberant, the album accurately and acutely captures just what it is The Divorce do best.
Slender Means debut album “Neon & Ruin,” is a powerful and sophisticated debut. As passionate as it is rocking, it is presented with soulful lyrics and convincing brash and bravado, all the while snagging common 1980s melodies and repurposing them for its own ends.

Filling many a Seattle club weekend after weekend, we’re so excited to be able to help these bands take the stage once more and celebrate these albums as they so rightly deserve.

Pond released two beautiful albums on Sub Pop (1993’s s/t album and 1994’s The Practice of Joy Before Death) before making the jump to the majors…

In 1997, Pond released the magnificent Rock Collection on Sony/Work. A record that sonically was filled with angular guitar riffs, sharp and dynamic drums, and wonderfully harmonic vocals. An album that clearly that stands the test of time and sadly, never got the attention it was due. With your help, we’re hoping to change that.

Latent Print Records & Gravy Lane Records are working together to help see that this album receives the vinyl treatment it so rightfully deserves. And what better way to celebrate the 25th anniversary of this amazing album with vinyl and renunion shows, right?

Normally a project like this has a typical process in getting it ready for vinyl (transferring/mastering audio, recreating artwork, printing, pressing, etc.) However there’s also an  additional step of the added licensing costs from Sony in order to be able to make this happen (which as you can imagine, isn’t a small number)

We’ve put together a pre-order campaign that offers up some pretty great (and limited) rewards (shirts! lyrics! hats! show tickets! screen printed posters! & more!)  to help us achieve our goal as we move forward to present this record with the utmost of love and care on beautifully colored vinyl. 

We greatly appreciate your interest and contribution in helping to make this happen. 

Thank you so much for your time and support in helping get the word out.
