Social Frankenstein
Waste of Aces
Melodic acoustic indie pop-folk, but no guitars allowed - only ukuleles. Kinda like the Beatles' White Album. With ukuleles. Did we mention ukuleles?

WASTE OF ACES: BAND BIO
When three musician friends started messing around with ukuleles, liquor, and a 4-track inside a 30-foot yacht, the band Waste of Aces was born, and strummed onto the underground ukulele scene (yes, there is one) with a bunch of unusual but catchy melodic pop, folk, and jazz tracks. Initially silly and simple in conception, the band grew in ability and began to tackle more complex compositions. The argument - should there be drums? - was tossed around, and as a result several guest drummers sit in on a number of songs, expanding the sound of the band. Many other talented guest artists are often brought in to enhance the variety of instruments/vocals. But the core elements of Waste of Aces remain Jeff's sensitive songwriting/vocal abilities layered on top of Jun's complex fretless bass tracks.
WASTE OF ACES : SOCIAL FRANKENSTEIN
Anyone who plays the ukulele will be able to identify with the title track of this album. We know we're cool though in our own "special way" because our mommy told us so. More sophisticated in writing and recording than our first outing, this album still has those simple and catchy tunes that are sure to delight young and old (even old and crotchety!). There is even that dog-gone hidden track that has become a trademark of the band. Can you have a trademark after only two albums? Hmmm. I'm not sure. The band really has two distinct sounds. Some songs have that old fashioned hoity-toity sound of the 1920s while others caress your ears with the indy/jazz sound that appeals to the modern day bohemian. We know you will love it because our mommy told us that too.
