Crazy Good Records, an independent label based in Edmonds, Washington, has unveiled a new five-song EP from the band 4EachOther, a group rooted in Seattle’s vibrant open mic scene. The EP, titled "4EachOther," celebrates the spirit of community and friendship through a blend of folk, rock, and blues.
The band, 4EachOther, comprises Andrew DeNance on guitar and vocals, Leroy Henry on 12-string guitar, vocals, and percussion, Lisa Lusk on ukulele, vocals, and percussion, Nelson Daggett on conga and percussion, and Russ Johnson on harmonica. The band’s story began with a chance meeting between Russ Johnson and Andrew DeNance at a park bench in Edmonds. They soon expanded their lineup with Henry, Lusk, and Daggett through connections in Seattle’s open mic community.
Alan Hardwick, the founder of Crazy Good Records, expressed his excitement about the new release.
The EP, "4EachOther," includes a tribute to Miro Jugum, a friend and familiar presence in Seattle’s open mic community who passed away in early 2025. The song, "The Ballad of No-Repeat Miro," honors Jugum’s memory and reflects the band’s deep connections within the local music scene. The album also features a rendition of "Chanson Pour Les Petits Enfants," originally performed by Jimmy Buffett, alongside original songs that showcase the band members’ personal stories and friendships.
The track list for the EP is as follows: 1. Countryside Angel 2. Park Bench Blues 3. The Ballad of No-Repeat Miro 4. Mezcal Nights 5. Chanson Pour Les Petits Enfants
Guest musicians, including Andrew Lee Mason on bass guitar for "Park Bench Blues" and "Countryside Angel," and Alan Hardwick on bass guitar for three of the tracks, contribute to the EP’s rich sound.
Listeners can now hear the music and purchase downloads or order the CD through the band’s official webpage and at local record stores in the Puget Sound area, including Musicology in Edmonds. The CD and more about the band can be found at www.alanhardwick.com/crazygoodrecords/4eachother.
