| a.m. Sunday’s first full-length recording, "Ladies and Gentlemen"
captures the young group’s melding of soul, garage rock, drum & bass, and
pop in full dynamic color. Setting the bar as only overachievers can, the
band began work in the summer of 2004 to make a record that was in essence,
a Louisville basement band’s "Songs In The Key Of Life". The result is an
11-song program that combines the band’s visceral impact with a narrative
sensibility that insists on repeated playbacks.
