When you girlfriend says, “I want it now!”

She’s talking about EPMB.

If Bill Withers and Maroon 5 had a love child,

They would probably call it EPMB.

And if you’ve ever wondered what southern roots rock feels like when it collides with funky soul, come out to the Corporate Battle of the Bands at Antone’s on April 28th at 9:00PM to see what everyone is talking about.

In an effort to spread their joyous music to everyone on this thirsty planet, they have played hundreds of shows and completed five national tours in just under two years.

Jordan, Ryan, and Hooch are fun, funny, and intelligent people. They care about many things such as gorillas, raising people`s consciousness, lowering the drinking age, protecting the environment (veggie-diesel), and changing what is considered “popular music”.

They are especially excited to be Thirsty Planet’s Artist of the Month because of the Brewery’s dedication to the Mountain Gorilla Conservation Fund and the Austin Gorilla Run. As co-founder of the Austin Gorilla Run, big time sponsor, and performing artist after the race, Achachay! got to see Thirsty Planet’s dedication to their purpose first hand. They live up to the ideals of simultaneously loving beer, people, and the environment. In this way, Thirsty Planet and Achachay! are a match made in heaven.

This music is about Achachay! pouring their hearts out to you, and you pouring `em right back out to us. We hope you love it! “

Over the last two years, whirlwind front man Donovan Keith and the dapper disciples of Soul Track Mind have become synonymous with raucously entertaining live shows. From house parties to the home of the blues, Antone’s Nightclub, and increasingly outside the friendly confines of the Live Music Capital of the World, Keith stirs crowds to a frenzy, begging the question “Has James Brown returned in the form of this maniacal redhead?” (Examiner).

Performer Magazine raves “[he] proves that white boys do have soul…with his unbridled enthusiasm and dance moves.”

To capture this frenetic live energy on Ghost of Soul, the band enlisted the help of legendary producer-engineer Stuart Sullivan who has also bestowed his golden touch on seminal releases from Pinetop Perkins and WC Clark to Eric Johnson and Sublime.

With a sold-out album release party in Austin and a string of well received appearances since, Soul Track Mind is indeed becoming a force to reckon with in the modern soul genre.
