Everest signs with Neil Young's Vapor Records

Everest

Everest, an all-star local quintet whose members sport resumes longer than the intro to "Cortez the Killer," has signed with Neil Young's Vapor Records.

The band (from left, Davey Latter, Jason Soda, Russell Pollard, Rob Douglas and Joel Graves) is putting the finishing touches on its debut, "Ghost Notes," produced by Mike Terry and recorded in Elliott Smith's former New Monkey Studio in L.A. It is scheduled for an April 8 release (with an Amoeba in-store planned for that day).

More on the music later, but you can get a good idea of Everest's direction by checking out "Rebels in the Roses" on the band's MySpace page.

Um, so I am not quite 13 yet but I have to let you know that I am a HUGE fan. You're my hero.

Hi, I just want to say thanks to you Kevin. Hope to see you at the show w/Parson Redheads next Monday night at Spaceland. We're on at 9:00 or there abouts.

Kindly,

Russell
