After nearly two decades of learning from some of the best producers in the world, Earl Pereira (Steadies frontman and founding member of the multi-platinum trio Wide Mouth Mason) has released what he feels is the best work of his career.

Starcity Shakedown (November 29th 2013) is an ode to The Steadies’ island-rock roots and marks the band’s first release since their 2011 EP that earned them a top-50 hit in Canada. “I wrote, mixed and produced most of the new album myself after spending the past year and a half obsessively learning everything I could about the technical side of recording. I’ve never been more proud of anything I’ve worked on,” says Pereira.

Having recorded six major label albums with Wide Mouth Mason, Pereira earned his producing pedigree through years of collaborating with a roster of legendary producers who have worked with the likes of Prince, No Doubt, Johnny Cash and Paul McCartney. “I was like a sponge in the studio with our producers; I spent a lot of time in the control room with them and I developed relationships where they would share their knowledge with me. I was given some amazing learning opportunities and I didn’t take that for granted,” says Pereira.
