BAND GEEKS Album Featuring Patti Murin, Ruthie Ann Miles, and More Out Today, 1/4

YELLOW SOUND LABEL has announced the digital release of Band Geeks, an EP featuring six songs from the musical, today, Friday, January 4. Since its premiere at Goodspeed Musicals, the show has been a favorite at high schools, colleges and regional theaters, spawning the over fifty productions and the hit audition song "Lost In The Brass." The album features many of the original cast members as well as others well-known from Broadway: Ruthie Ann Miles (Here Lies Love, The King and I) Lindsay Mendez (Carousel, Wicked), Jared Gertner (Book of Mormon), Patti Murin (Frozen), Alex Gemignani (Carousel), Douglas Lyons (Book of Mormon), Jill Abramovitz (Beetlejuice!, "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel"), Jason Michael Snow (Book of Mormon, A Christmas Story Live!), F. Michael Haynie (Charlie & The Chocolate Factory, Jesus Christ Superstar: Live In Concert), Jacey Powers (Our Town), Michael Millan (Escape to Margaritaville) and Matt Braver (Mozart in the Jungle). The Band Geeks EP is available exclusively on digital platforms, including iTunes, Spotify and Apple Music.

Band Geeks features a score by Gaby Alter (Nobody Loves You),Tommy Newman (The Yellow Brick Road),and Mark Allen (Getting The Band Back Together). The show's book is by Newman and Gordon Greenberg (Holiday Inn). Band Geeks is licensed through Music Theatre International.

In the tradition of "Glee" and The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, Band Geeks is a celebration of the tribulations of the millions who have spent football halftimes pounding out Sousa-like renditions of "Maria." With just nine members and dwindling funds, the Cuyahoga High Marching Beavers are close to extinction. When a troubled athlete is relegated to their ranks, Elliott, the tuba-playing band captain and Laura, his best friend, must find a way to unite the band, embrace their inner geek and save the Marching Beavers.
