The Damsels in Distress: Recording Hey EP

Posted on by

Micah got a text from a friend asking us to make a fake EP for a fake record label. No expectations and no pressure. How nice! We wrote five songs and spent the next two weekends recording.

As we worked, the kids began to watch and sing along. Along with the songs, L.K. put together fun album art. A childhood picture of L.K. on a bicycle reappears on the front, and the back features our first daughter E.K. skipping at a lake. The word “hey” appears in every song. So that happened. We put it on our bandcamp. We hope you take a listen.

The Damsels in Distress at Tea Bar and Bites

Posted on by

We had the L.K. Sukany “Family Life Illustrations” art reception at Tea Bar and Bites art reception Thursday night. It was really fun and a lot of our friends and family came out – and some people from the Springfield community too!

There were some write ups on the event to promote it, which felt really fancy – especially on the KSMU Community Calendar.

The Damsels in Distress got together once again and played an all acoustic (no microphones even) show. We played acoustic guitar, mandolin, tambourine, maracas, glockenspiel, accordion, concertina, harmonic, and vocals.

The set list was: I do, The Statement, Arkansas, Girls Take Pills, Home, Gailey’s Mr. and Mrs. Campfire Song, D&D, I Like You, Candy Store, I Don’t Drive, Old Person Muses 40 Years Hence, Zero Field, Old Spanish Trail, Let Me Fall in Love, Sister, Home Sweet Home, Little Owl, Rare Red Rainbow, Fighting Hearts, French Song, Steven, and Neutron Rising.

Most songs can be heard on thedamselsindistress.bandcamp.com

The Family Life Illustrations can be viewed on the Paper Opera blog at paperopera.com/category/art/15-illustrations or at lksukany.wix.com/art/drawing

Thanks to everyone who came out to support our art and music!
