Most people don't have a clue what it takes to produce a professional music album. And a lot of professional musicians don't know what it takes to get a 6-piece band together for a rehearsal, let alone produce an entire album! Needless to say, both are an absolute TON of work.
At this stage in the game, our album looks like this:
- Recorded? CHECK!
- Liner Notes? CHECK!
- Album Art? NOT JUST YET
- Photoshoot? Oh Yeah!
- Audio Engineering complete? NOT JUST YET
- Printing and Duplication? WAITING FOR THE ABOVE
Angelina's story.

Hola fellow music lubbers!
Funny story how I got hooked up with the Dregs. Ok, maybe not really funny-ha-ha funny but at least it's a story.
It all began with MFL. That's right the Heritage Theater Company production of "My Fair Lady."
Little did I know that in auditioning for this community theater production I would be subject to such a large secret conglomerate of Festies. Jen, a young veteran Festie, planted a seed in my brain when she said, "Angelina I think you would do well out at Fest"
Free Uncorked MP3s!
About 65 of our Uncorked CDs were accidentally burned with errors! About mid-way through the album, the songs start sounding like "static" (if they play at all). Unbeknownst to us, we began selling this batch of defective CDs on Saturday, September 29th, 2007 (the closing weekend of the Minnesota Renaissance Festival).
Secrets to The Dregs' music
What began as a simple peasant band has since evolved into troupe of performers bent on one thing: making you laugh. This is the most important thing I discovered when I first saw The Dregs perform in late 2004. Having heard a few of their songs on CD, I wasn't exactly blown away by their musical talent. That's why I was pleasantly surprised to see them live and to learn a secret that Dregs fans have known for years: Half of the entertainment never leaves the stage!
Dregs Documentary!
Our first LIVE CD!
Our newest album, Uncorked has been released and is selling like free beer! Unfortunately, one batch of these CDs was produced with some burning errors that start about half-way through the disc! If you received one of these bad CDs, we will be happy to replace it for you. Simply email us about your lousy, good-for-nuthin' CD along with your name, address, and phone number and we'll ship one off to you lickety split!
Stay Tuned!
Fresh Brains!
Join us in raising a toast to our newest member, Angelina! And just when you thought we couldn't sound any prettier! Somebody buy her a drink!
