thechuckdiezel Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Hiya folks. Luke from Gruff Beard here. It feels like ages since I posted on this board, but it's nice to be back. Here's what we got going on in Gruff Beard land... GBR 008 - Melissa & Paul "Live Hard" 10" EP and Summer Tour w/Dead Ringer First and foremost, we are proud to announce that GBR 008 is here! This wonderful slab of 10" vinyl comes to you from our friends Melissa & Paul and is entitled "Live Hard". Co-released with our friends at Bedside Manner, this 10" EP marks the beginning of some broader horizons for us here at Gruff Beard and we couldn't be more stoked to put this out for your listening pleasure. Based out of northern New Jersey, the dynamic duo of Melissa Lucciola (vocals/guitar) and Paul Chiesa (drums/vocals) play passionate punk/garage/blues that is sure to get your toes a tappin'. "Live Hard" features six brand new songs; and, we can say with confidence that this is the best material these cats have recorded to date! If you dig on The White Stripes and The Black Keys then you will find plenty to love about this EP. All copies of this record come housed in beautiful, screenprinted chipboard covers along with a free digital download code for the entire album. Pressing information is as follows: -100 blue vinyl (Gruff Beard exclusive) -100 white vinyl (M&P/Bedside Manner exclusive) -100 black vinyl Buy here: http://gruffbeardrecords.limitedrun.com/categories/gruff-beard-records'>http://gruffbeardrecords.limitedrun.com/categories/gruff-beard-records Melissa & Paul: www.melissaandpaulmakemusic.wordpress.com www.melissandpaul.bandcamp.com Bedside Manner: www.bedsidemannercollective.wordpress.com If you happen to be on the West Coast, you do not want to miss M&P's summer tour with our friends in Dead Ringer!
