Mike Hallal Band Releases “Live at Lizard Lounge” CD
Cambridge blues/rock show set for December 13
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The Mike Hallal Band celebrates the release of their new CD, “Live at Lizard Lounge,” with a performance Saturday, Dec. 13, at the underground club, located at 1667 Mass. Ave. (617.547.0759). The 53-minute album features blues-soaked rock originals and extended funky jams recorded this summer and mixed at Woolly Mammoth Sound. Attendees receive a free copy of the disc with admission. Doors open at 8 p.m. $10 cover. 21+. Tickets also available in advance at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/49332.
Steeped in the likes of Muddy Waters, Cream and the Black Keys, the 4-piece band has been packing the intimate Lizard Lounge since their first appearance there in January 2008. At the release party, they’ll showcase original songs from the new CD and debut more fresh tunes, with the help of special guests Tommy Dempsey and Mike Previti. Dempsey starts the ruckus at 9 p.m. with a set of original acoustic rock.
Excluding a bonus instrumental, all of the album’s tracks were recorded one night last June, when the band was hitting the note with special guest Jesse Flack (Jim’s Big Ego) on upright bass. Rowdy, workingman’s blues, slow-burning soul and rapid-fire funk mark the range of originals. A riff-heavy update of bluesman Henry Townsend’s “Doctor Oh Doctor,” first recorded in 1931, takes out modern frustrations. And grooved reworkings of little known tunes by Tom Petty and Neil Young reveal the band’s eclectic roots.
“Keep it real was the mantra for this CD,” says singer/songwriter/guitarist Hallal. “Nothing was re-recorded. You can get right in there with the real sound, the night, the spontaneous simpatico.” Joining Hallal in the band are 15-year brother-in-arms, drummer Jim Antonellis, songwriter/guitarist Chris Schluntz and bassist Robert DeCorte, who appears on the bonus cut. All live in the Boston area.
“Live at Lizard Lounge” will be available after Dec. 13 at iTunes, Rhapsody and other music sites, at mikehallal.com and at Newbury Comics stores. For song samples and more info, visit myspace.com/mikehallalband.

Steve Kimock Launches Crazy Engine
After three years, Steve Kimock announces his new nationally touring band, Steve Kimock Crazy Engine. This is Kimock unleashed. The ensuing revelry featuring Melvin Seals on Hammond B3, will push the boundaries of rock and roll, rhythm, gospel and soul for undeniably feel-good music. Known for his mind-bending versatility and intuitive guitar-speak, Kimock has enjoyed the last few years performing with the likes of Rhythm Devils, Rat Dog, Allman Bros, Little Feat and Zero among others. While the complete six-person line-up won’t be announced until next month, expect gigantic things from Crazy Engine in the coming year.
