Jeff Przech CD Release Show w/ special guest Meredith Rose

Sunday April 26, 2015 @ 7:00 PM

The dawn of 2015 finds Connecticut songwriter Jeff Przech preparing the release of his debut solo record, "Sounds Like Fresh." The title is a little piece of wordplay on Jeff's last name, which actually does sound like fresh. The album's eleven tracks (ten original songs and a cover of Ryan Adams' "English Girls Approximately") are an amalgam of stories (both fiction and non-fiction), strong melodies, and expressive, honest lyrics. Przech is a reflective and genuine songwriter, one who takes great pride in his craft. "Sounds Like Fresh" will be Przech's first, but certainly not last, entry into the arena of American(a) music. There are songs about where he's been, but "Sounds Like Fresh" gives a crystal clear glimpse of where Jeff Przech is going as well.

The songs that make up "Sounds Like Fresh" were written over the past few years, but really started to come to life early in 2014 as Przech was working on original music with his band, The Bus Drivers. Once the creative floodgates opened, the songs kept coming. Some of the songs didn't fit the band dynamic, leading Przech to begin work on "Sounds Like Fresh." A weeklong trip to the solitude of Vermont's Northeast Kingdom this summer provided the finishing touches on the songs that will make up what he expects will be the first of many records to come.

Meredith Rose is a singer/songwriter on the rise living in Connecticut, however, she was born and raised in New York. After earning her first guitar at the age of 8 by playing Led Zep's 'Over The Hills and Far Away' for her dad, Rose has been writing, performing, and recording nonstop. With her tender vocals and guitar-centric soundscapes, Meredith Rose is best described as an Americana Pop singer/songwriter. Her vivid storytelling has captured audiences across the Northeast from prestigious venues such as Pianos and Leftfield in New York City, The Singer/Songwriter Festival in Cape May, even the highly sought after stage at the Bluebird Café in Nashville, and many more. When she performs live, Rose has the undeniable ability to bring the listener on a journey through her stories, only enhancing the story with glimmering guitar work and creative arrangements. Her recently released debut EP Sow, is comprised of four songs lushly produced by multi-Emmy award winner Jim Chapdelaine. The tracks on Sow were adeptly described by Nutmeg Chatter news with: “The crescendo of “Let Me”, the backing tracks of “The End”, the happiness found in the beats of “Free” and “I Will Fall” never eclipse the strongest element of the album which is Meredith Rose’s vocals and point of view.”

“With each foot-tapping hook and each longing vocalization, Rose sinks her musical talons right into the very soul of what a pop song can and should be.” – Chip McCabe, Lonesome Noise
