Dramatic strings, brassy horns, and a driving percussion section pack a musical punch and leave a bigger impression often missing from “live” rap records.

Connie Price and The Keystones was conceived as a recording project, and features music written solely by Dan Ubick, whose recording credits include Breakestra, Madlib’s Sound Directions, along with Todd M. Simon, of Macy Gray, Antibalas, and El Michels Affair fame. A revolving cast of characters from the incestuous and bustling Los Angeles music scene add flavor, including members of Orgone, Plantlife, Breakestra, Beck, DJ Z-Trip, Cake, Rhythm Roots All Stars, David Holmes, David Garibaldi, Macy Gray, The Lions, Greyboy Allstars, Greasy Beats, etc.
