Rain City Rockers - Mayday

"Mayday" is the debut album for Rain City Rockers, a sort of powerpop/melodic punk supergroup featuring Tom Thacker (Sum 41, Gob), Anthony Bleed (Die Mannequin), Darrin Pfeiffer (Goldfinger) and frontman Andrew Conroy.

"I kinda got the idea [for the album] a few years ago when I was in San Francisco," Conroy explains. "I was going vinyl shopping and looking through all the record I had purchased, some Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin, and the thing I really liked about those records is the fact that they were recorded live off the floor with no click tracks - with great musicians."

Attempting to bridge the gap between the 60's and 70's and the 21st century, Conroy took that concept to heart, gathering the band to record "Mayday" in one day.

This absolutely amazing album was released last Tuesday via Flashlight Music Group. Watch the video of Rain City Rockers recording the first single "Saint Babe" and stream the whole record on SoundCloud.
