Huge thanks to @studio4vinyl and all their amazing staff!! What a super cool facility. Not only did we get to grab the vinyl today but we got a full blown tour from the famed and beloved @philnicolo, one of my oldest homies @mr_littlejeans and the one and only @strick__36 …this place is amazing and so are the people. This is truly local vinyl pressing at its best. State of the art facility and the staff is just as zany and creative as the artists they cater to. Also the building is apparently haunted which is cool as nails IMHO.. not to mention this is what restoring American manufacturing looks like. It has many faces and this is one of them. Your demand for vinyl turns old forgotten warehouses in left behind by globalization and offshoring jobs. @marketplaceapm should do a story on @studio4vinyl

I started learning to play music when I was 8 years old. I started playing drums when I was 9… started playing guitar when I was 10… I started my first band and played my first show when I was 11… 25 years later, after refusing to “let it go”, today I got to hold a copy of my own album on vinyl. A lifelong goal, set at age 11, achieved at age 35. The only people who fail are the ones who quit. Me and @deri.nate worked SO hard on this record for nearly 5 years, so to finally hold it in our hands was a major victory. So many thanks to everybody who helped us along the way-both in the music aspect and in keeping our heads above water during tumultuous times. Even when I’m a recluse in the studio- the external support doesn’t go unnoticed. Here’s to reaching goals. May you all continue chasing your passions, no matter how long and grueling the road is. @kewlhaze LP “Suburban Sherpa” is now available on all streaming platforms and will be for sale on our website in the coming days! And! Hard copies will be available for sale at our album release show next Friday 5/15/26 at @kungfunecktie in Philly!!! #kewlhaze #psychrock #newmusicfridays #audiophile #psychedelicvinyl
