The Cassettes– a four or five-piece Choose Your Own Adventure Mystic Country Steampunk Stomp band from Washington, D.C. started by Frodus frontman Shelby Cinca as a solace from his post-punk screaming endeavors. Ballooned from a lineup that originally contained members of Dead Meadow to a group of modern day vagabonds and dreamers consisting of multi-instrumentalists that play theremins, steel guitars, accordions, analog synthesizers, tablas and much more. Also known as a Musical Explorers Society, The Cassettes (a registered trademark), dare to push standard musical structures while maintaining a respectful tip o' the hat to the visionaries of the past. Courage.
Shelby Cinca: Guitars & Vocals, Stephen Guidry: Banjo & Accordion & Moog & Vocals, Saadat Awan: Drums & Tablas & Vocals, Arthur Harrison: Theremin & Vocals, Nick Kraly: Bass & Vocals & Projections, Christina Frances: Vocals, Dr. Klem: Contrabass & Chimes.

I’ve Been Gone Far Too Long… is a weathered post-card born by hand and wire through downpours and snowy drifts and sweaty lodges that anticipates the careful scripting of a lengthier, long-overdue letter to come. The Cassettes continue to explore the musical landscapes that they discover, even as this release might betray a longing gaze homeward, toward kith and kin.](http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ljt09gGFe31qb5rk9o1_500.jpg)
