"GLASS
HANDS" Here it is, the Red Bennies brand new hit album,"Glass Hands". It features guest appearence from the AF Jr. Caveman Players on a few tracks. It was recorded just as Scott left the group- thanks, Scott, for playing on these recordings first. Scott did the original tracking/mixing for Don't Stop, In the Dark, and To Get Your Attention. Band members are David Payne, Scott Selfridge, Terrence Warburton, Dan Thomas. Mostly recorded practices in the basement of the Westgate Business Center, where the band currenty shares a room with Wolfs, Ether, Purr Bats, Tolchock Trio, Tiny Lights, and others, with Laser Fang and Vile Blue Shades down the hall. |
"SHAKE
IT OFF" Album "Shake It Off" signifies the first attempt at some Hi-Fi music since "Announcing", and also Paul Butterfield's last album. Mixed/Mastered by David Payne, recorded by Jeremy Smith at the Moroccan. Album released by Chad Murphy and his Exumbrella Records, of which Dan also had a hand in, and who also released lots of Tolchock Trio and Taughtme stuff. Both of the music videos on this page were included on this album as secret files you could "explore" on your computer. |

"ADULT
SOPHISTICATES" This album contains selections from the EP's "Yes It's Lo-Fi 2 'With a Hug'", recorded by Scott Selfridge at the Urban Lounge, and "Watch Your Language, engineered by Ned Clayton at KRCL radio, plus some tracks were 4-tracked at rehearsal. All tracks are live, Mixed/Mastered by David Payne. Features members from multiple lineup changes over the 3 years it documents, including Mike Sartain of Starmy fame, Josh Knight, Gentry Densley of Eagle Twin. |

"YES IT'S
LO-FI: 'WITH A HUG'" The album "Announcing" was released just as Eli Morrison and Nate Pysher left the group- Mike Sartain and Terrence Warburton joined. This album was an attempt to quickly represent the new group. It was intended to by Hi-Fi but half the tracks on the duo reel to reel mixing console broke at the last minute (after the session). Nothing stops the release of a fine album on schedule. Mixed/mastered by David Payne. Recorded at the Moroccan. |

"ANNOUNCING" This album represents the greatest effort from the group with their older, more caustic sound. Only album with Nate Pysher on drums. First album mixed by David Payne. Recorded at the Moroccan by Andy Patterson, and mixed for long hours at Eli's house while enjoying Jigglers and Brownie Hill, until Andy went touring in New York and Dave got to take the computer home with him. It still sounds just right on the speakers used for the process. First heavy usage of Organ in the group (played by David). This was released by Dren and his label Vaccination records who did some Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, Rube Waddell and Grnd Ntl Brnds. Mastered by Dan Rathbun. |

"SOUL 002" This album "Soul 002", commonly referred to as "The Chicken Album" on account of the fine chicken art on the cover compliments of Kyrbir, was reluctantly (just after the finishing of "Hey Rocker") recorded by the group by Josh Stippich, at Kyrbir's request, who wanted to release these songs which were slightly older than those on Hey Rocker.. Mixed/Mastered by Josh Stippich, and released on Kyrbir's 19 State of Deseret label. It was re-released a decade later on Will Sartain's Kilby Records, with bonus MP3's hidden on the disk. Re-mixed/mastered by David Payne. Andy Patterson played drums on most of it, Steve Gibb on some of it, and Robbie Davis plays on the secret MP3's. One track has a long silent ending, as there was originally an "intermission". |

"HEY
ROCKER" This, "Hey Rocker", was Red Bennies first attempt at a fine CD. Recorded, mixed/mastered by Josh Stippich, paid for by Leena Rinne, and released on Kyrbir's 19 State of Deseret label. Andy Patterson Played Drums. Since Eli's band Ambergris had nothing to do with their recordings (also done by Josh Stippich), and there was half a CD left over, it was a good idea to throw that on too. Ambergris was by Andy Patterson, Pat Dahl, Eli Morrison, and Amber Jarvis who years later played drums on the Purr Bats Live at Urban Lounge tracks, and also Soft Fluff and Bionic Fresh Moves. She also sang in Optimus Prime. Trivia: the name "Hey Rocker" refers to the text on the front of the album, bitten from a Fall album, that says "Hey Rocker! Buy this disk, then buy Red Bennies next hit album, Announcing!", and every album since has had a similar tag. |

"LIFE AS
I KNOW IT" This album was entirely bought and paid for by Kyrbir's own 19 State of Deseret record label. It was recorded by Jeff Fogt on secret recording device (camcorder) and mixed/mastered by David Payne at Josh Stippich's house for a fine release. There is some heavy dictaphone usage as well as some samples from Resident Evil. The recording took place at the I.S.P. warehouse in southern Provo where David was living with Derwood Hutchison and others, and where the band was rehearsing and performing. The song "Life as I Know It" was an accompaniment to an artsy slide show. "Life as I Know It" literally consisted of selling plasma, trying to wake up early enough to make it to the Utah Food Bank, and avoiding driving errands by use of an un-corroborated epilepsy condition. A single boon the the season was a show charging a discount for admission with canned food-- which the goth band, Daughters of the Nile, (who innexplicably stuck around after the show for a few days), selfishly devoured. |

"FAMIL" The album "Famil" was dubbed by hand to cassette (with only the left side copied on many) and then released on Kyrbir's 19 State of Deseret label. It contains music recorded live and late at night tracked by Josh Stippich. remastered here by Cory Bury and then David Payne. Some tracks taken from the "High Desert" summer shows at Bird's ranch in western Utah which filled the Alesis Digital Audio Tape recorder with many dust particles. This represents Red Bennies very first batch of songs- the song "Rocket" actually being pre-Red Bennies. "Sleep" was a real hit in the community. Lineup is David Payne, Guitar, Paul Butterfield, Bass, and Steve Gibb, Drums. |

BROWN 'NOT A SIDE SHOW'" Circus Brown has a radio show on KRCL Community Radio called "Circus Brown's Not a Side Show". He was kind enough to have us on one afternoon.

"VADIM
SESSION" While on a weekend concert trip to the SF bay area (where Scott is from), we stopped at his friend Vadim's studio and dropped 300$ of our stingily hoarded money for these tracks. These are mixed by Scott and mastered by Dave. The tracks for the 7" "Walk Right In" are from this session, and the rest was abandoned, and recently stumbled upon. Josh Knight played drums on these, joined by Terrence, Dave, Scott, and Paul. |

"ANNOUNCING 'DEMOS!'" As he was nervous about his first lone effort to finish an album , "Announcing", David thought he'd do a test run first. This is a pre-production test of the batch of songs done on four-track at Moroccan rehearsals, with organ and vocal overdubs. Years later, Eli thought it sounded particularly visceral and fuzzy, and re-released it in a small run on his own label, 8ctopus Records who also features Bleed Yellow, Polestar, Jealous, and some of his other rad groups. The track "Listen Up" never worked out on the official album, and was replaced by the Ambergris cover, "Kali Comedown". Also, just as this work was done and it's confidence building effects had been marked, David borrowed a bunch of equipment from Josh Stippich and the band headed down to the Moroccan for their big one night effort of recording the album proper. When they got there, the TV crew for the show "Touched by and Angel" was filming in the building next door and demanded silence. David ran back to Josh's and returned with the rental reciept that resulted in a thousand dollar check (from Touched by and Angel in exchange for that night's silence) that went straight to Andy a few weeks later for tracking the album "Announcing" properly. (I forgot to mention that the original need for this "confidence building exercise" was that the band didn't have any money). Eli also played baritone guitar a lot during this time, but I don't think it went on the album. | Download "Announcing Pre-Prod" Announcing Don't Stop Saying What Hurts Downtown If You Meant to Do It Like I'm 18 Listen Up Rest 30 Take it Out |

"TUSK
TASK: TSK, TSK, TSK" "Tusk Task: Tsk, Tsk, Tsk," is a compilation of live rehearsal tracks, lineup changes, and studio projects over the history of the group. Original lineup is David Payne: guitorgan/guitar, Leena Rinne: bass, Dan Thomas: drums. In 2007, Leena and Dave had baby girl twins which all but halted their ability to hold joint membership in the group, and the band was joined by Terrence Warburton on bass and then guitar (as babysitters were found). This also led to some songs recorded by Dave alone, as well as the development of the "Glinting Gems B Squad", which is a soft interpretation of Gems pieces (as well as Red Bennies pieces and others) on the drums, bass, and electric sitar, intended for soft concerts at the Urban Lounge's sunday night "Time To Talk 'Tween Tunes" that David hosted. "B Squad". consists of Dave, Dan, Charlie, Greg, Mike, and Shane. |

"AND
THE COWS CAME HOME IN PIROUETTE" "And The Cows Came Home in Pirouette" was recorded by Scott Selfridge at the Westgate Business Center, and is the only album exclusively representing the lineup Kyrbir: vocals, Eli Morrison: guitar, James Acton: drums, Jesse Winter: keys, Derwood Hutchison: Bass, (with Scott singing some cool backups now and then), which was a steady lineup for a long time, and the album distinctly shows the hard rockin' tightness of the roster. Many of these songs are in their current set, as Eli and Derwood have been replaced by Terrence Warburton on guitar, Scott on bass, and David Payne on keytar. |

"SALT LAKE
CITY" "Salt Lake City" was polished and compiled by David Payne and Kyrbir at Arcade Game Studios in Sugarhouse. It features tracks made by Jeremy Smith, Eli Morrison, David, and Andy Patterson. Perpetuas Greening is taken from the Urban Lounge concert on this page. That's a picture of Jeff Fogt cutting Kyrbir's hair. He recorded the Red Bennies album "Life as I Know It". This album was made during a emptiness of proper bandmate-age, and some of these songs never made it to the big stage. |

"BIONIC
FRESH MOVES" "Bionic Fresh Moves" was mixed/mastered by David Payne. It features a long list of hit songs, covers, and repeats in a conglomeration of dance beats and heavy metal screams. Eliza Wren Payne sang backups as well as Amber Jarvis and Lincoln Lysager. I believe that this one was made just post of the breakup of the original group, though a lot of parts were recorded just prior. Some tracks supplied by Kyrbir's friends in London (all the really slick ones). Lots of Tracking done at Moroccan by Jeremy Smith. |

"SOFT FLUFF" "Soft Fluff" was recorded/mixed/mastered by David Payne at Backroom Studios on Broadway. Great work from the Purr Bat's first lineup after Kyrbir's triumphant return from London and the five year hiatus of his original group "Puri-do". Deep Deep in the Cornfield is a Puri-do hit. Dodo and Gluehorse actually preceed Puri-do and were originally hits of the slightly older group "Mary Throwing Stones". The Sheep have been Reapholstered was a hit of Kyrbir's post-Puri-do band Hooo that he had in Seattle. Lineup is David: keys, Scott Selfridge: guitar, Amber Jarvis: drums, Paul Butterfield: bass. |

"SLEEPING
BAG ON KRCL WITH BAD BRAD" Sleeping Bag got together to play Bad Brad Wheeler's radio show on KRCL. Sleeping Bag was an effort on Kyrbir's part to put lots of his softer and moodier songs in one spot. As such, all but two of these are covers from his previous groups. This is played by Leena Rinne on guitar, David Payne on keys, Derwood Hutchison on bass, and James Acton on drums. Mixed/mastered by Dave. |

"QUALITY
SLEEP TIME" This album, "Quality Sleep Time", represents the final effort of the band Puri-do. It was recorded and mastered by Josh Stippich, and played by Kyrbir, Eli Morrison, and David Payne. Kyrbir had moved to seattle for a bit (where he did his band Hooo) and had returned for a summer before his long move to london. Dr. Anthony J. Snow and Derwood Anne H played some little parts, as well as Paul Butterfield and Brian Pfrenz-c. The current "official" performing group at this time consisted of Anthony Snow, Derwood Hutchison, Eli Morrison, David Payne, Kyrbir, and Matt Barlow, but the album was recorded as a rogue move by Dave and Eli as the group had grown apart. All the songs labeled "Sleep" are brief soundscape bits (mostly stiring a bowl full of jars of pills at Inma's house one day captured in high-def David's four-track), and the album was meant to be listened to in order (perhaps inducing a nap?). The album turned out very nice. It was made in the era of CD's, and a CD release was planned, but as the performing group didn't really exist and Kyrbir was going to move back to london, it only saw a cassette tape release, so this is probably your only chance to hear it, although, the band "Sleeping Bag", which was formed for the sole purpose of putting songs on Slug Magazine's "Death By Salt" music compilations, and for playing two lonely shows-- but with the ideal of starting a regular band to play soft and beautiful music-- revived many of these songs. |

"1997XF11" "1997XF11" was compiled from recordings made by Sean McCarthy in his basement, David Payne in his mom's living room, and Joe Payne at his studio at University of Utah. Band Lineup was Doug Wright on bass, Mike Sartain on drums, Amber Jarvis on flute and vocals, Sean McCarthy on organ, and me, David Payne, the creator of this website, on guitar. Some tracks feature Robie Davis on drums and Gunnar Olsen on bass. Once at a concert at the Urban Lounge, some of us made a glittery posterboard with our new name, "The Glinting Gems", and Sean was furious, so we kept the name "Optimus Prime" until finally changing it to "Blue Sparks" before we broke up. It is thus no surprise that my next group, "The Glinting Gems" featured some of these same songs. The purpose of this group was to rake in the dough at preppiest bars in town, like Port-o-call, but the dream was never realized. |
