Vaudeville
Athens, GA's Vaudeville described their music as "dark, raw recordings with heavy rhythmic bass, punchy drums, noisy/angular guitar and coarse/barking vocals." The trio was a local mainstay for many years and the music is as unique as it gets. In 1998, Ghostmeat and Athens' Perfect Pitch Records worked together to release Vaudeville's debut album Into The Burlesque. The band disbanded shorty thereafter.
Singer/bassist Don Chambers has continued as a solo artist. His solo debut Back In The Woods is on Perfect Pitch Records.
