Shimmy Disc

Shimmy Disc is a New York City neo-psychedelic label founded in 1987 by Kramer. After years of hiatus, the label was reborn as Second Shimmy. Known for its unique and experimental sound, Shimmy Disc has been a pioneer in the music industry, showcasing talented artists and performers who push boundaries and defy genres.

With an impressive roster of *artists*, Shimmy Disc has consistently delivered groundbreaking music that challenges conventional norms. From alternative rock to avant-garde pop, the label's diverse range of releases have captivated audiences worldwide.

As a leading force in the underground music scene, Shimmy Disc continues to be at the forefront of innovation and creativity. With their commitment to supporting emerging talent and nurturing artistic freedom, they have established themselves as a trusted platform for musicians looking to make their mark on the industry.

The History of Crying is Jad Fair's and Kramer's third collaboration, and their first in almost 20 years; 12 brand new songs recorded in 2017, produced and mixed by Kramer at his Noise Miami studio, and remixed in 2020 on Brian Wilson's UA610 console for a long-lost analog clarity that will burn like an exploding sun between your ears. Longtime fans of Jad Fair will be stunned by how he sings on this LP. No other LP in Jad's storied career features him singing complex melodies in the manner he does here. This LP also features psychotic guitar solos on each and every song by Paul Leary (Butthole Surfers), so BS fans will go hog wild.
