About: Amidst his freshman year of college experiences in La Crosse, WI, Dan Collins cultivated his music via a 15X11' dorm room. During this eight month span of writing and recording his stories, dreams, and new episodes, fresh sounds emerged. Rigged with a new setup, and all by his lonesome, Dan developed 13 tracks, totaling over an hour of music, for all ears to consume. From up-tempo tracks like "Take On The World" and "Dormitory", to slow, personally laden tracks like "The Fourth Of July" and "Lullaby For The Patients and The Patience," Collins and his piano have made one giant leap in music.
About: Written by Derek Ramnarace and Corey Mineard the track was recorded by Derek Ramnarace, Corey Mineard, Joe Gantzer, Marcus Glodell and Ben Rohde

About: This is an anthem for hope. We are the sound of Jimi Hendrix strapped to the front of a run-away freight train with Motown and Dylan feeding the fire. We are not rock stars. We're not selling sex, angst, or anarchy. We're giving away songs about how hard it is for our generation to find love, purpose, and truth in a world that just wants us to buy more of what put our parents in this situation.

About: Sharp and funky drumming keeps the song alive from the start, but it's the sultry, minor-key saxophone interludes that make the song groovy and as cool as it is hot. The most intriguing thing is that it feels like a celebration while sounding effortless. With a roster that includes performing veterans like Bob Corbit, who can play two saxes at once, it probably is effortless. Deciding to broaden your own horizons, whether through travel or listening to music, is the hard part.
Funky, bluesy, reggae flavored grooves are the language of Primitive Culture. David and the bros (Bruce, Don and Jerry Neviaser) started playing together in 1976; cutting their teeth on the rock and funk of the 60's and 70's. The first incarnation of the band, Harold and the Rhinos, was a raucous, fun and funky group that was heard around the bars and fraternities of the University of Wisconsin in Madison. From those humble beginnings, David went on to form the acclaimed international touring and recording group JAVA, which claimed fans from all over the US, Canada and beyond, opening for such notable artist as: Elton John, The Pointer Sisters, Jimmy Buffet, Dr. John, Los Lobos and The Neville Brothers. After eight years as leader of Java, David began a new chapter, traveling and living in Latin America, honing his skills as a solo performer, later moving to Colorado to perform in the ski resorts of the Rockies.
In 1998, he returned to Madison, reuniting with his long time friends the Neviaser brothers (aka The Rhinos), veteran sax master Bob Corbit (who played with Tina Turner, Stevie Ray & Jimmy Vaughn, W.C. Clark) and the multi-talented trombonist/percussionist/singer Phil Lyons, to form Primitive Culture, a groovy, percussive ensemble that brings various genres together in an upbeat and ultimately danceable group. Primitive Culture is: David Hecht - Guitar and vocals, Bruce Neviaser - Bass guitar and vocals, Greg Marsh - Drums and percussion, Jerry Neviaser - Drums, Bob "Daddy Wando" Corbit - Tenor, alto, soprano saxophones and vocals Phil Lyons - Percussion, trombone and vocals

About: STEEZ's first full length album has recieved much praise since its release in August 09 as well as being nominated for the homegrown music album of the year. here is some recent press: "[STEEZ] named one of the 10 most influential Madison acts of the 2000s " - Rich Albertoni, The Isthmus (Nov 06, 2009)"Creepfunk Crusade...will prove pleasing to jam lovers, particularly those who hanker for funk. "Saz," "Scoring Position," and "Boss Theme" are quintessential funk, along the lines of the Greyboy Allstars or Dirty Dozen Brass Band." Jambands.com (Aug 24, 2009) - "this (creepfunk crusade) is a party album, no singer/songwriter, crying in your beer fare. Clocking in at roughly 72 minutes, you get bang for your buck with this release." "Each player is able to showcase their skill and lays a sonic landscape of funk...I must say that this is a hugely impressive debut album from Steez that I cannot recommend enough." - Musical Stew Daily (Aug 22, 2009) - "the best definition of creepfunk comes most clearly by way of the first moments of Creepfunk Crusade's opening cut, Trouser Snakes. A Galactic-style groove, dripping with a synth-laden bass line and interspersed with horn blasts, collides with a breakdown thick in Middle Eastern tonalities" - Jambands.com (Aug 24, 2009)
Vote for Steez's Creepfunk Crusade in this year's Madison Area Music Awards (MAMA's)!!!

About: "The Way Back Home" shines with soul and sass, reminiscent of Jenny Lewis and Kasey Chambers. Mann drapes her bittersweet lyrics with sticky tenderness and wails like a woman scorned but proud. Her singing is wonderfully expressive, sometimes smoky and sometimes high-strung and bent with bluesy insistence." -Wisconsin State Journal
