R. Mutt needs your help!

Hey Friends, we need your help!  We are in the process of consolidating our studio and cleaning out product from behind amps, under beds and up in closets.   We have overstock for our last few releases, and less and less space to store it all.

So, we are running a blow out $10 sale on some of our physical product including: The Dash (CD or Vinyl) Leash on Life (CD) and Heptane (CD).

Pick your album and format below.   The $10 price includes shipping and handling.


 





We have some 30th anniversary shirts available too.   Email Jim to find out what sized and style are available.    These will all ship out for $10 (including shipping)

Thirty Year Anniversary Spectacular: Don't Call it a Comeback...

...we've been here for years.   In truth, some of us have come and gone over the years, but this May marks the 30th anniversary of R. Mutt's birth.  We are pulling out all the stops with full up invitations to everyone who has ever played with R. Mutt going back to 1988.   Club Garibaldi's in Milwaukee's Bayview neighborhood will host as we run through 30 years of songs and line ups.   Come on out and flashback to a time when bad decisions were just part of your weekend plan.

(Don't) Stop the Presses!

A printing plate fitted to a cylinder of a rotary press during printing at Thomson Newspapers London Office circa 1950.

The reviews are in, and we could not be more humbled.  (Well, I suppose we could skip the part where we repost our favorite compliments...)  2017 was a great year for R. Mutt.  The reaction to our new record, The Dash, has been stellar, local support from both WMSE and 88Nine in spinning our songs has introduced us to new fans, and we shared stages with great bands like Stereoactive, The Dexateens, The Gyps and dada.

If you have not seen any of the reviews of the record, most of them are linked below.   You can also hit our PRESS page to see reviews of our past records. 

We are looking forward to another great year and hope to see you out in MKE or Chicago.   Say "Hi."  We might buy you a beer.

--------------------------

"From start to finish The Dash is a solid record that is a blast to listen to."

"Wafts of Springsteen and Rush will hit you like a blast furnace"

"Screaming roars of vocals combine with raucous guitar and thumping that sucker down drums to provide music that begs for answers to many fundamental questions." 

"...the band locks down into a pummeling rock groove that one could equally equate to The Stones and the better glam rock bands of the seventies and even, dare we say it, KISS." 

"Rare is the musical classicist who can inhabit a genre without coming off as a revivalist. On their fifth full-length album, The Dash, Milwaukee’s R. Mutt achieves that sort of classicism when it comes to classic rock."

Innisfree/R.Mutt reunion!


Saturday, April 28th, 1990 was the last time R.Mutt and Innisfree shared a stage.   October 2017 we are going to do it all over again.   Andy Kochanski has rolled out the red carpet for us and we are excited to again share the stage with some of our good buddies from the old college days.  Unofficial master of ceremonies, Tim Nau, has taken a break from his full time social media job to reunite a classic Innisfree line up, including Brian Kelly (vocal) Dave Moser and Colin Watts (guitars), and Peter Carr (drums.)

Come on out to relive your favorite black out.   We may have some old school Mutt cassettes to give away and maybe some Avalanche t-shirts for sale.

Doors at 7:00, bands will start about 9:00pm.    Kochanski's is a quick Uber away at 1920 South 37th Street, Milwaukee.
