Thanks Kimo Muraki

Thanks to Kimo Muraki for spending some time with the band in studio last night.  Kimo, one of Seattles most well know musicians took time out of his schedule to lay down some Pedal Steel tracks for Aces Up's live show.  It was clear in about 5 min that Kimo was a true professional, and he was able to lay down all the tracks in less than two hours.  We were all truly impressed by Kimo as a person and as a musician.  Thanks again Kimo and we look forward working with you in the future.

View From the Top

We sure as hell haven't made it to the top, but it sure felt good to be back in the radio station. This morning we interviewed with "Fitz in the Morning" on 100.7 the Wolf. Fitz was great, as usual. We got to meet David Rose from Q13 FOX news, and we also got to reconnect with our good friend Joe from "Vendetta Red." We sang a little piece of "She Looks Like Home" and then they spun our single for the first time on the radio. All in all it was a good time. Miss the interview? Just click on the music player to the right and take a listen. Thanks Fitz, 100.7 staff, and all of you for calling in and requesting the tune. It was a great day for the Aces Up Family!
