Biography
Previously described as "My Bloody Haggard", The Union Electric is Tim Rakehell, Glenn Burleigh, Melinda Cooper and Mic Boshans…occasionally including Beth Bombara, Jake DeLeonardis, Brad Vaughn - all seasoned St. Louis musicians committed to their creative community. Local artists, Dana Smith and Sleepy Kitty created art work for the first and second records and their score for the work of poet, Stefene Russell, composes the title track for "Thylacine".
"Tim Rakel (awesomely billed as “Tim Rakehell” on the EP’s sleeve) delivers the lyrics in a braying snarl that dovetails nicely with guitarist Glenn Burleigh’s caterwauling leads." -Eric Condon, Louisville's Leo Weekly
"In its unpretentious experimentalism , the record thrums with the working class avant-garde energy that St. Louis seems to inspire" -Jason Toon, St. Louis' Riverfront Times
