AAA Battery is the new pop group comprised of Joe Maydak on bass, Fred Jeske on guitar and drums, and
Canadian pop hero Spookey Ruben on
vocals. All have middle names that begin with the letter “A.”
This long distance relationship of a band – Maydak is based in San Francisco, Jeske in Chicago, and Ruben in Toronto – formed by
chance. Maydak and Jeske had
been playing together for years and were already fans of Canadian musician and
experimental filmmaker, Spookey Ruben,
starting with his underground classic album Modes of Transportation Vol. 1
(TVT Records), through his
continuous releases and more recent musical collaborations and film work with
everyone from Esthero to Ariel Pink.
As Maydak
and Jeske began assembling a new
group of recordings, they approached Ruben
about appearing on one of them, and ultimately got more than they asked
for. As Ruben remembers, “After hearing the tracks, I thought ‘How about I
sing on all of them?’” AAA Battery
was born, and now the trio’s debut album Year of The Woman is scheduled for
release on December 3rd, 2013. The record brings together the multitude of
tastes, attitudes, and locations that makes this trio of experienced musicians
unique and exciting.
Quirky, even as artists go, Ruben deftly describes the album’s first single “Tea Time” as “Softcore Porno For Pyros. L’eggs Benedict. Boing Me Up, Scotty. Maniac
Mansion. Back Alley Beer Tank. Group Hug. Shoulder Kiss Blackout. Psychedelic
Fungus Among Us. Rusty Leaves, Branches, Twigs. Jug of Iced Tea. Tenderloin VHS
Tape.” Give a listen and Ruben’s take on the track makes perfect
sense.
