Ripple Music is psyched to announce that seminal desert rock innovators FATSO JETSON are joining the Ripple roster! Their new outing is a split release with fellow Californians All Souls, with both bands recording their contributions live in the studio during the pandemic lockdown. Fatso Jetson is an iconic American desert rock band from Palm Desert, California, formed in 1994 by Yawning Man members Mario Lalli and Larry Lalli, along with Tony Tornay. They are often credited as the fathers of the desert strain of stoner rock later made most famous by their slightly younger neighbors Kyuss and, later, Queens of the Stone Age. While musically similar to some of their brethren, Fatso Jetson have always branched out and expanded the desert sound by incorporating a broader variety of musical influences including punk, jazz and surf. Fatson Jetson have toured the world several times, with highly regarded appearances at festivals like SXSW, Roadburn, DesertFest Berlin, DesertFest London, and RippleFest Texas, even appearing in the Foo Fighters‘ HBO miniseries Sonic Highways. Paired with Tony Tornay‘s other band All Souls, Live from Total Annihilation is the new split release from Fatso Jetson, following in a long line of highly regarded splits from the band. Live from Total Annihilation finds Lalli, Tornay and the rest of the band in fine form, tearing through four classic desert-rocking tracks. Look for the split to be released this august on Ripple Music. |
