Details:
Due to circumstances beyond the control of this finite world the summer of 2007 left the three piece rythm section of local L.A. rock band The Distants without a singer. With The Distants being on a temporary hiatus David Arthur Kelly (guitar) returned to L.A. after having spent a month at Wauzhushk Onigum (Rat Portage) First Nation Indian Reservation at Lake of the Woods, Ontario. He brought with him a host of unfinished songs and ideas. Thankfully drummer Jamie Douglass and bassist Ben Jindra were eager to collaborate and help David finish the tunes adding their own unique signatures to the skeletal ideas. Things came together rather absurdly fast and in three, three hour jams the five songs that would make the EP were arranged and demoed (Opposites Attack in under seventeen minutes). All bed tracks on the EP were recorded at Ben’s house on a Yamaha 4 track, the guitars and vox being completed at David’s on a computer.


Rest in Peace David Kelly

For those of you who do not know or haven''t heard, David Kelly passed away on March 30, 2008 at his home in Highland Park. David was a special person to each of us in his many ways. He was always bubbling with vitality and creativity. If you were around David, something was always in creation. For Jamie and I we were fortunate enough to share our musical souls with him both in Echo Hawk and The Distants. I feel both an incredible sense of honor and loss in his passing. He was a soldier of true music and although he may not be here in body, he will always be with us in spirit and speak to us through his music.

Much love,
Ben & Jamie
