The Chesterfield Kings are back after 15 years with We're Still All The Same
Rochester, NY's The Chesterfield Kings have been leading their own garage rock revival since the late '70s. The new LP, We're Still All The Same, was recorded at Fab Gear Studios in Rochester, NY, and produced by Ed Stasium (Tape Op #98).
The band's Andy Babiuk says, "Our producer Ed Stasium came to Rochester, and we recorded 20 new songs in August of 2023. We had a blast working with Ed pulling out a ton of vintage guitars, amps, keyboards and other odd instruments, coming up with interesting sounds that you really can only get out of vintage equipment. Ed took the tracks back to his studio in California and did an amazing job mixing the LP and also mixed the record in the new [Dolby] Atmos format."
The record release show is at The Bowery Electric in NYC (October 25th) and features The Grip Weeds, whose Kurt Reil was in Tape Op #160. Check out Andy Babiuk's books on The Beatles' equipment and more!
