Tales Of A Kitchen Porter - A Tribute To Cleaners From Venus

“Tales of A Kitchen Porter” is a celebration and tribute to the brilliant works of DIY troubadour Martin Newell and the everlasting and prolific group Cleaners From Venus. Known for his home recorded (and often home made) cassette albums, Newell carved out a legacy as the godfather of indie pop inspiring generations of fans and two documentaries in recent years. Newell earned reputation and acclaim by capturing kitchen sink drama and earnest tales via the lo-fi jingle jangle of inspiration and spontaneity. Dandy Boy Records is proud to present a fifteen band tribute from some of the most endeared underground bedroom pop artists of the modern era. Featuring Chime School, Nic Hessler, Whitney's Playland, Flowertown, Yea-Ming, Smashing Times, Mister Baby, Julian Never, The Dates, Sob Stories, and Smile Too Much; “Tales Of A Kitchen Porter” is a wonderful collection of home recorded Cleaners covers honoring “the Greatest Living Englishman”. “Tales Of A Kitchen Porter” was mastered by the incomparable Mikey Young (Eddy Current) and comes out Sept 27th with a hand screened fold over cover by Bay Area artist Tony Rasonsky.
