Album Notes

YakMusic in New Zealand have gathered a variety of artists from all over the world (USA, UK, Argentina, and Canada) for an exciting project, dedicated to Brad Smith, Rogers Stevens, Christopher Thorn, Glen Graham and the late amazing Shannon Hoon.

Bands submitted versions of their favorite Blind Melon tunes, and YakMusic selected, produced and packaged the songs together to make a touching tribute to a very special band of the 90s.

The album spans almost five years of Blind Melon favorites over three albums and also includes a cover of a never-before-released Blind Melon demo called Tickled Pink, recorded and performed by Jena Kraus (who featured on Blind Melon's Mouthful of Cavities).

Other bands that feature on this stunning tribute are:
Superextra,
The Velmas,
Easily Amused,
MoeDeLL,
Kurt Vatland (Featuring Defuze),
David Aaron,
Empreinte Galactique,
Flames of Troy,
Spider,
The Holy Crabs,
12 Daze,
Jamie Shields,
and Exposed in the Drawing Room.
