About Me


Gavin Castleton
"For the Love of Pete"
August 21, 2007

For the Love of Pete is the sixth solo release from producer/songwriter Gavin Castleton in 3 years. Fresh off the buzz surrounding his two recent fictional albums, Castleton’s For the Love of Pete will be a shocking dose of non-fiction for his listeners. This full-length album delivers an honest, warm and palpable crosssection of his extremely intimate and private 6-year relationship. It's a compilation of 12 songs that were written exclusively for a special girl from 2002 to 2007: from their budding courtship, through their heartspanking breakup, to the glorious aftermath still inspiring his writing today. Gavin Castleton has released a record that speaks to everyone who has ever found and lost love.
Awake and Alert debut album
"Devil In A Lambskin Suit"
September 11, 2007

Devil In A Lambskin Suit is the long awaited and beautifully-crafted full-length debut from Awake And Alert, considered one of Arizona’s best kept rock secrets, formed at the beginning of 2004 in Mesa. Prior to recording the twelve-track album with producer Bob Hoag (The Format, Limbeck, Dear And The Headlights), the group self-released 2005’s Weight which was named “Best Local Rock Release” of the year by Get Out Magazine. After an intensive songwriting and recording process during the early winter months of 2007, the band had finished their most accomplished work to date. Once again led by the luscious, soulful voice of Maya Peart and the atmospheric, warm guitar tones of Blake Kimball, the quartet’s songs are immediately striking and timeless. Solidified by drummer, Tony Reed and bassist Spencer Reed, Awake And Alert have truly created a sound all their own on Devil In A Lambskin Suit.
“The Arizona quartet offer one of the most beautiful, commanding, and memorable full-length debuts heard so far this year. “ – Aversion.com *****"Awake and Alert’s Maya Peart, her soul inspiring vocals ranging from Denali-esque crooning to Vedera’s mesmerizing swooning are testament to the power and hold that these pristine figures of womankind are affording our ears." - Indie Rock Review"Indie pop from Mesa, Arizona’s Awake and Alert is haunting, ethereal, and enchanting. Delving into a suite of soaring vocals that are subtle and sublime as well as solid shoegazing guitars and experimental nu-jazz rhythms, Awake and Alert have perhaps defined themselves as a cross-genre exploration that deserves your fullest of attentions. " - Smother.net
"The debut album of Tempe-based Awake and Alert, Devil in a Lambskin Suit (Five One, Inc.), is one of the most welcome surprises in the indie pop scene this year." - Phoenix New Times
