Ten East

about

10 East is the highway that leaves Los Angeles toward the cities of the desert and "Extraterrestial Highway" is the soundtrack/homage that has been created by these four veteran musicians from the Coachella Valley scene: Gary Arce (Yawning Man, The Sort Of Quartet), Mario Lalli (Fatso Jetson, Orquesta del Desierto, Yawning Man), Brant Bjork (Kyuss, The Bros) and Bill Stinson (Chuck Dukowski Sextet (Cd6), Greg Finn, Fastgato HOR, Dessau). Four of the most productive, interesting and honest musicians of the whole underground rock scene that don't need introduction for anyone who's been on track of what happened inside rock music during the last 10 or 15 years. Not only because Gary Arce and Mario Lalli commandet the desert scene (from which Kyuss would arise) with bands like Across The River, Yawning Man or Sort Of Quartet but for all their implication with the punk/alternative movement that was created and fed by SST in the 80's with bands like Black Flag or Saccharine Trust and that served of quarry and inspiration to many 90's key bands; from Reh Hot Chili Peppers to Queens Of The Stone Age, passing through Sonic Youth, Jane's Addiction or Soundgarden. And the fact is that while Brant Bjork conquered the 90's heavy rock with the already legendary Kyuss, Gary Arce, Mario Lalli and Bill Stinson were tanned in jams with musicians like Greg Ginn, Mike Watt, Nels Cline or Chuck Dukowski and they learned, listening to albums by Miles Davis, Eric Dolphy, Thelonious Monk or Sonny Sh
