THIS CITY OF NEIGHBORHOODS is the first compilation album from
The Beechfields Record Label. It features new, exclusive tracks
from The Seldon Plan, Private Eleanor, The Red Vines, Among Wolves,
A Cat Called Cricket, The Honest Mistakes, Infinite Honey, and
Pupa’s Window.
These bands and musicians believe that music is not about money
or fame, but about connections with other people through music.
Music is ultimately about human relationships, and enhancing the
collective relationships we all have with one another. The Beechfields
is proud to present such a diverse collection of music and viewpoints
within the scope of this compilation.
We’re giving this CD away free, because we think once
you hear these bands, you’ll want to buy their records.
We hope it'll help get you as excited about the future of Baltimore
music as we are!
