(Press Release) NCM East has produced 21 records in the last few years and is pleased to announce its best ever, the debut of the smashing duo, Rix Glassmeyer. Tastefully minimal without monotony, 24,200 miles is a collection of powerfully subtle songs about insects, Incas, angels, farmers, human-powered planes, Satan, snowmobiles, and, of course, women. Each track presents a fresh mood, maturely keeping tabs on the duo's vast musical vocabulary.

Although the 13 tracks have a common thread in vocal sound, vivid lyric imagery, and rock backbeats, the approach of each song varies widely, contrasting the familiar power trio sound with ukulele, Moog bass, and horns. These guys owe as much to Al Green as to Van Halen. The ear-snagging melodies and solid songwriting is built on invented instruments and adventurous recording techniques, somewhere in the territory of Tom Waits or Mitchell Froom. The memorable choruses grab you at first listen, but ten more passes in headphones only raise your interest.[see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
