Release Notes:
"Tomorrow, The Stars," the debut full-length CD from
Los Angeles based Signal Hill Transmission, was
recorded and produced by the band itself in a
friend's house in Echo Park, CA during the Fall of
2004. The album is a fresh, energetic testament to
the band's evolution since singer/guitarist Scott
Warren and drummer Scott Schoen formed the band
three years prior. Just weeks after the 2002 release
of their first EP "Home," the duo became a
four-piece, adding bassist Duane Rakestraw and
guitarist Mon Agranat to the collaborative mix. In
mid-2003, the group released a four-song EP that
showcased the considerable growth it had experienced
since "Home." The self-titled EP included "On and
Off," a song that became one of the most played
tracks on Bob Harris' BBC Radio Show for that year.
Now, on "Tomorrow, The Stars," Signal Hill
Transmission works with an even more sophisticated
and diverse sonic palette, yet continues to preserve
Warren's gift for lyrical empathy. The album evokes
a compelling variety of influences, from the willful
swagger of the late 70's British mod scene and the
smart, synthesized hooks of contemporary European
indie-pop to the desperate honesty of the Midwestern
alt-country rock that first inspired the band.
