Thirty Dollar Stella
Los Angeles, CA
Americana / Alt.Country / Blues
Bio
Sittin' out on the front porch drinkin' a cold Pabst or a sweet tea, strummin' some tunes and hollerin' at the dogs to git outta the garden.

Stella wandering barefoot through the front lawn pickin' daisies..she's not cheap, but she's reasonable.

Just who is this "Stella" anyway?
Thirty Dollar Stella. Sounds cheap and easy. Not necessarily the case. Simple perhaps. Accessible to the masses or those inclined to relax and listen would be more like it.
An Americana music project hatched in the So Cal high desert by two musicians longing to experiment with a simpler way to kick out some jams. Roots stuff, things from our musical beginnings.
Old school. A front porch vibe, or perhaps from the floor of the hole-in-the-wall watering hole down the road a spell. Real tunes from real folks with some real feeling in them, from a simpler time and place.
Old instruments, musicians and recording techniques. A slower pace to the process, less dubs, more "one-takes". Run what you brung.
Relax and set a spell with Stella, she'll set your mind right.
