Verge is Liam Macdonald's debut CD and it won this year's RECORD OF THE YEAR award at Radio Six International. 300 recordings were considered and votes were cast in 80 countries. Credit for this success is shared with the talented group of friends who worked on Verge - most notably Andy Goessling, Tim Carbone and Buck Dilly from Railroad Earth and Kings In Disguise and Moris Tepper who has his own band from L.A. and whose resum has him playing guitar for PJ Harvey, Tom Waits, and Captain Beefheart. On the tech side you may also be familiar with Fred Kevorkian who did the mastering, just as he has done for Phish, Sonic Youth, Dave Matthews, The White Stripes, Lou Reed, Lenny Kravitz, LL Cool J and more.
