Euclid Records’ live in-store performance series continues with Peter Holsapple and Chris Stamey at 1 p.m. Feb. 1.

Holsapple and Stamey are founding members of ’80s outfit the dB’s, and are behind tunes such as “Ask For Jill,” “Amplifier,” and “Living a Lie.”

This free concert is their first local appearance since 1991.

This will be the fourth in a series of live in-store performances to be followed up by the release of limited-edition 45 rpm singles recorded in the store.

Each release will be strictly limited to 300 copies, and $1 for each one pressed will be donated to the New Orleans Musicians Relief Fund (NOMRF).

Holsapple and Stamey will choose one or two songs to be released as the 7″ single.

Each release will be in a special package with the back sleeve designed by Firecracker Press, and each front cover will be a unique print, signed and numbered by various graphic artists and suitable for framing.

The 45s will be sold exclusively at www.euclidrecords.com and www.nomrf.org. Pricing varies.

“Mavericks” by Holsapple & Stamey is certainly one of the best pop records ever made. What a blessing to have them in St. Louis performing new (and old) songs.

Thanks for the heads up on this. Can’t wait!

That’s funny! I was actually listening to “Repercussion” by the dB’s in my car (turned up to 11) over the weekend. It’s timeless stuff man.

Hope to see some familiar faces there!
