Bigger “Stages”

Monday, March 31, 2008

If marriage is a covenant to stick it out for better and worse, then Kristen May and Brian Little are in it for the long haul. As half of the Kansas City band Vedera, the couple has already endured trials like losing all their gear on the road and fighting a legal battle to keep their old band name (Veda). At the end of the day, however, May and Little own an unbreakable songwriting bond that has taken flight with support from bassist Jason Douglas and drummer Drew Little. A major-label deal with Epic Records coalesced after a year of negotiations, setting the stage for the group’s sophomore album “Stages” (tentatively scheduled for an early summer release). With a righteous lead single (“Satisfy”) stirring the pot, the band will embark on a two-month tour with Eisley to put chick-rock back on top. We visited the lovebirds at their Westport roost to chat about “Stages” and check out some new (and old) tunes.
