Debut Album from Chadwick Stokes


Chadwick Stokes, one of the founders of Dispatch and the frontman for the band State Radio is due to release his debut solo album later this month on June 28th. The album entitled Simmerkane II was produced by John Dragonetti of The Submarines and features guests Blake Hazard (also of The Submarines), Carly Simon, The White Buffalo, and Matt Embree of the RX Bandits who are currently on their farewell summer tour (with one of my favorite bands, Maps and Atlases opening for them on a majority of the tour.) There will be autographed CDs available and the album will also be available in a Delux Fan Package to include the 2 CD set, a silk screen poster, t-shirt, a Chadwick Stokes Limited Edition Train Whistle and an optional vinyl.

This past week, I had the opportunity to film an Unboxing Video for Chadwick Stokes' new album to help promote all of the elements that come with the delux 2-CD release. For those who do not know what an unboxing video is, please see the link above but basically, in a little over a minute, we were able to showcase album artwork, special guests, and the fact that this album was made from 100% recycled material.

I got a chance to edit the video, which should go up on Youtube soon along with a preview of the album with Stokes' single "Back To The Races" now available on iTunes.
