The Palm Leaves of Victory / Audio Letter to Mitch Meyers
The Sun City Girls were unlike any band before them or that has come in their wake. Their catalog, their ethos, their *being* - you name it, with the Girls that “it” was singular and became legend. This singularity started early and extended to their release schedule and the means behind the same. While the band would prove to be wildly prolific throughout their existence, during their nascent days they quickly realized that they could not be contained by any sort of traditional label schedule. …

In the years that followed, he was one of the most adventurous figures in the incredibly diverse British underground scene.
