Album Notes

about Regina Hexaphone:.."Regina Hexaphone are fronted by Sara Bell (Angels of Epistemology, Dish, Shark Quest), who has been raising the level of musical discourse in the Triangle via her playing for the past 20 years or so. Jerry Kee plays drums; his Duck-Kee studio has probably been responsible for more local records in my collection than any other single studio. Chris Clemmons was in the Bettys with Jerry, and played with Sara in Dana & Karen Kletter's band. Nathan Brown fronted Laramie UK. Margaret White was in the Comas & the Carbines, and nowadays is usually too busy touring with folks like Sparklehorse, Cat Power, and Portastatic to be able to make all the gigs. They are a bona-fide supergroup of folks who're far too modest to ever think of themselves that way." --Ross Grady, the alt.music.chapel-hill guide to the triangle
