After a 5 year hiatus
the members of long time San Francisco Northern California shows this summer.
The album, entitled ‘Mystery Sings’ is a solid collection of material from sessions
that span several years in the studio. It is arguably their most provocative
and strongest record to date with songs that cover a broad range of styles from
Roots Rock to Blues to Alternative.
Official CD Release Show
to take place Fri. 6/24 at Neck of the Woods 406 Clement St. San Francisco, CA
The Small Change Romeos is a prolific and
exciting musical outfit led by Singer Songwriters Chris
James and Mike
Ruy. A rhythm section tour du force backs them with Matt
Berg on drums, and AJ
Leighton on bass.
Keyboardist, and upcoming artist in own right John Patterson, fills out the band’s
eclectic sound.
The Romeos have been developing their
craft for several years, both on stage and in the studio, creating a musical
synergy between them that is undeniable. Being songwriters first, rock n’
rollers second, their multi-layered, contagious songs rally up audiences to
follow them through emotionally stirred performances.
"SCR is a real rock
band. They bring to mind an edgy, dynamic and classic sound that is missing in
so much of today’s music. Great songwriting and awesome onstage performance and
energy...” Working with them both on the stage and in the studio has always
been a pleasure and an incredible experience..." -Phil Bennett, Starship
MORE INFO: In 2007 through 2009 their album “Fool’s
Gold” attracted the
attention of the majors and the band was able to secure a music placement
contract with Gotham Records out of NYC. The record featured a host

Bennett (Starship). Additionally, the Small
