“The Farm is Open for Business”

After many delays the renovations have been completed at Hepcat Dilemma’s legendary rehearsal space, The Farm, and the band has resumed rehearsing as they hope to get back to work on their new album. “The Farm is open for business,” reported guitarist Bob Loiselle, “and we are making noise.” Work at The Farm had begun in the spring and along with better soundproofing came an upgraded sound system. The work took a little longer than expected but the band is thrilled with the results as facilities at The Farm are better than ever.

The band has been focusing their efforts on working out the arrangements for the final songs to be recorded to the follow up to their critically acclaimed album, “Art Imitates Life” which was released in 2019. Eight tracks have already been recorded but work on the album came to a halt after they lost their practice space at Club Fiasco. The band hopes to get back in the studio before the end of the year to work on the final tracks and have the album ready for release next year.

Reports from the early rehearsals found Hepcat Dilemma to be in fine form despite the extended layoff. “I was amazed at how together we sounded right away,” said Bob. “We just need to build up our stamina and get rid of a little rust. It’s been a long year so it’s great to finally be able to play again.” While he said that they weren’t ready to get back to playing live yet Bob was quick to plug Chris’s upcoming show with The Reckoning at Mr. Small’s. “Chris does such a great job singing the REM songs. You can really feel his affection for the material.” (The Reckoning play at Mr. Small’s Theatre on Saturday September 23^rd. The show starts at 8 PM.)
