The main reason we are in this band is to tour till we die and constantly be playing for you but we need your help in order to make this happen. If you could take the time to help us by phoning in a request for “Phoebe” at your local radio station we would be able and glad to come to your town and play for you. We work very hard on our songs and we want everyone to feel that musicians in love with music itself will reign the airwaves once again. Turn the radio on.

Thanks for your time, effort and appreciation,
– Organ Thieves

To stamp a definitive date on when the Organ Thieves formed isn’t an easy link. The abridged story goes like this: While the idea of the band had been ruminating for several years, it took a series of unexpected pushes forward for vocalist Chuck Coles to transform the band he started in 2008 as a largely acoustic, one-man side project into the four member outfit it is today.

The band is comprised of Coles (vocals and guitar), Mike Smith (bassist), Dave Baksh (guitar, formerly of Sum 41), and Theo McKibbon (drums). When Coles left the band Cauterize he joined Baksh’s heavy metal band Brown Brigade. While playing with the band, Coles began delving into the volumes of half-written material he had shelved while playing with other bands and ultimately made it his focus. Calling on childhood friend Smith to help him out, the three of them set out to find drummer McKibbon. Instead of using the music Coles had been working on for years, the band began writing new material that was influenced by drawing on their common history of having been raised in working class families, as well as placing focus on facing issues like domestic violence, the abuse of women, substance abuse and other social issues. The band took on a sound of punk rock, metal, reggae and classic rock.

“It took us this long for a reason,” says Coles. “We wanted to figure out what we wanted to say and to make sure we were doing things for the right reasons.”

Produced by Greig Nori (Sum 41, Iggy Pop, Marianas Trench), Somewhere Between Free Men and Slaves, the musical landscape the band has plotted out is clear. There is no need for explanations with the album’s wrenching vocals, crisp guitar and pounding rhythm, the music is for outsiders, or a soundtrack for an uprising. Evocative of the intensity of influences ranging from Bad Religion and The Clash, to Tom Waits and The Pixies, the band has poured every last ounce of intensity in the 12 songs.

Check out Coles singing an acoustic version of “Your Princess Is In Another Castle” a track off of Somewhere Between Free Men and Slaves here.

The lyrics of the song are a very personal message from the band, and Saint Alvia front man Ben Rispin had this to say: “A few years ago my Mom was diagnosed with Cancer. Having lost family to cancer in the past, I was feeling less than optimistic” adding, ” These lyrics seemed to fall out of me like I was reading out of a card or channelling some sort long buried feeling of guilt.” Relieved he continues, “We received a call and found out that it was in fact a misdiagnosis. I realize that most cancer stories don’t end like this although everyone prays they will – that’s why we decided to donate proceeds of the song in hopes that other people will have the ending to their stories they deserve.”

Forever and always pushing forward into the unknown, (the) Saint Alvia (cartel) are back exploring musical boundaries with their new album “Static Psalms” (produced by the band and Greig Nori – and due for release later this year). Maintaining the spirit of bands like The Clash and The Band, with influences ranging from 20’s era blues to modern lo-fi, these two-time Juno nominees have been lying low perfecting a personal sound and formula. Saint Alvia’s dirty, hook laden sound successfully draws on classic blues mixed with a DC post punk vibe and invoking a mod flare.

While the band are planning to releasing their new album “Static Psalms” in the near future (and more new music from the album will be made available very soon), Saint Alvia would like to keep everyone’s focus for the time being on “Mother’s Day” and the important goal of raising $5000. to fund cancer research and women’s health.

(the) Saint Alvia (cartel) are: Greg Taylor – vocals / guitar, Ben Rispin – vocals, Greg Fisher – bass / guitar, Matt Richmond – drums, Jon Laurin – keyboards.
