about

Sleepy Drums began as the experimental side project of J.Stout while he was also playing in Little Trees and Dinosaurs and Thunder. As Stout's other projects drew to a close, Sleepy Drums came to the forefront and grew to include drummer Michael J Hamilton. The rest of the lineup rotated until 2017 when it was finally solidified with the additions of guitarist Joshua Bradbury and bassist Christopher Berning. With the desire to finally document the sound of the fleshed-out band, Sleepy Drums began recording "Cosmic Imagination Pt. II," the follow up to their 2015 EP.

"Cosmic Imagination Pt. II" pushes further the boundaries previously achieved by the band. The album powerfully represents their live set while also stretching to follow fresh muses. Within a mere 26 minutes, they take the listener on a musical journey; channeling their patented blend of punk, garage, psych and grunge rock into a track list which proves to be anything but predictable. Combining studio tracks with excerpts of improv practice jams, "Cosmic" keeps it's listener on the edge of their seat, without pretense and without demanding too much of their time. Stout and Bradbury create a searing wall of guitars while Berning fills in all gaps, and then some, with energetic walking bass lines. In addition, the supreme rhythm talent of Hamilton is finally brought to the forefront as the drums shine clearly through the mix of these songs, sending each piece barreling forward.

"Cosmic Imagination Pt. II" will be released by local Cincinnati recording label Lo Fi City on August 04, 2018.
