Album Notes

For over a decade, Jeff Hix & the Heretics have been a staple in the Vinings music scene in Atlanta, Georgia. Their home base is the Old Vinings Inn, a 130-year-old house with a first class restaurant and a kick ass attic bar, and their unique blend of classic rock with funk, folk & reggae accents has made them an Atlanta local favorite for years. Band members have included the likes of the late Ron Harville (Ike & Tina Turner, Junior Walker & the All Stars), Sam Simms (Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey), John Willingham (DoubleWide), Tim Butler (Ton of Honey, Filter Kings), Nelson Nolen (Tommy Thompson band, Deja Blue) and Eric Johnson (The Theodis Ealey band). Beyond the Ninth Wave is their second record, recorded live by Marty Kearns at Down in Deep at 800 East, and produced by Jeep at the Hook House. It has a loose groove, hippie jam band feel with an old school, blues-rock backbone. The breadth and depth of experience from the 12 musicians that contribute to this record combined with the beguiling, irresistible hooks that are the hallmark of Hix's style will keep these tunes spinning in your head and in your jukebox for years and years to come. If you're looking for a CD to hit you in the gut, under the skin, and between the ears, then treat yourself to a copy of "Beyond the Ninth Wave" today. For more information on the band, upcoming shows, and for one of the few remaining copies of their first album, "Seventh Measure" (1999), visit strangeasitseems.com and/or myspace.com/jeffhixmusic.
