Details:
The Weisstronauts are a difficult-to-pigeonhole instrumental rock band based in Boston. Featuring three lead electric guitarists, the band weaves sometimes bizarre, yet accessible (and occasionally humorous) melodies and harmonies over a rhythm section that can turn from surf to spy to country to psychedelia on a dime. With four critically-acclaimed CD''s to their credit, The Weisstronauts'' music has been played often on NPR, college and commercial radio, as well as in several independent films. The band is fronted by well-known independent rock producer Pete Weiss.

The "In Memphis" EP was recorded almost entirely live at historic Ardent Studios in Memphis, Tennessee during a brief stop in the band''s June 2008 tour. Engineered by Jeff Powell (Cat Power, Big Star, Allman Brothers, etc.), and mixed by Pete Weiss (at Verdant Studio in Vermont), this 4-song EP catches the band in a creative and unguarded chunk of time. The rhythm section of Jeff Norcross and Nathan Logus particularly shine, as do the the spontaneous guitar solos of George Hall, Kenny Lafler, and Pete Weiss. Definitely a new and different kind of Weisstronauts recording, this CD release is strictly limited to 300 "hand numbered'' copies.
