\"\"<\/a>Dionysus Records presents our first release of 2011!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hailing from a little village close to Gelnhausen Germany (where the Monks were stationed as Gls), Roman Aul<\/strong> a\/k\/a Redondo Beat <\/strong>had a knack for playing many instruments and with his talent recorded two full length albums and several 45s on his own. While working mostly alone in the studio, Aul always had a real rock \u2018n\u2019 roll band backing him on stage. With his numerous releases, Aul\u2019s Redondo Beat created a small buzz in the USA, touring the East Coast three times. Redondo Beat had the opportunity to open a show in Frankfurt with headliners their 60s idols, the Monks, and toured throughout Europe as Sky Saxon\u2019s (of The Seeds) backing band for a month in 2008, on what would turn out to be Sky\u2019s last tour.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Dionysus Records is proud to release Redondo Beat\u2019s \u201cMeet Redondo Beat\u201d<\/strong>. Aul\u2019s influences run the gamut from early \u201860s Brill Building songwriters and related East Coast Girl Group sound, Creedence Clearwater Revival, a touch of Doo Wop, the sound of mid-\u201860s convertible top-down summertime Southern California and early \u201870s teenage AM radio Raspberry City Rollers flavored love-affairs. It is pure pop as seen through the eyes of the best decades of original rock \u2018n\u2019 roll music with all the drive of late \u201870s punk powered \u201880s power pop. Dionysus commissioned Southern California Surf artist Damian Fulton<\/a><\/strong> to paint the cover and the disc was mastered by The Tikiyaki Orchestra<\/a>\u2019<\/strong>s Jim Bacchi<\/strong>. lt\u2019s a marvelous listening experience that will have you traveling time and bobbing your head to some of the sweetest retro-pop-rock music you\u2019ve EVER heard!<\/p>\n
