This self-produced Avenue A Records release marks, Joe Cassady & The West End Sound's full-length, full-band, studio debut. Recorded by Mitch Rackin at Tonefloat Studios on Manhattan's Lower East Side and mixed and mastered by the Grammy winning duo of Nick Cipriano (Beat Street Music) and Steve Kadison (Sony Music), Whatâs Your Sign? features the songs of lead singer and songwriter Joe Cassady along with the cosmic barroom backing of his crack band, The West End Sound. Shu Nakamura lays down crunching rhythm guitar and soaring slide licks as well the occasionally well-placed mandolin, mando-guitar, or Oud part while Aaron Gardner (Bass) and Anthony Bax (Drums) anchor the rhythm section. Session men Dan Nachimson (Organ, Piano) and Christo Logan (Cello) are the smoke to the live sound that Joe Cassady and The West End Sound have been setting fire to the NYC underground scene with for years.
