Motorcity Special continues its surge with 3rd event within 6 months
of live recording to vinyl only record label conception.
“With each MCS event acting as a record release as well as a recording show
but we are poised to record 25+ different Detroit bands
by time we hit our 1 year Anniversary Show in May 2011.”
– Kirk MCB
“The Detroit music scene has been a big part of my life for over thirty years.
Live shows and vinyl records were and still are my passion so
putting the two together sounded like the thing to do. I can't think
of anything cooler than a live Detroit compilation record!”
-Kevin Pachla POD
