Plastic Soldiers Album Release Party with The New Connection, Rick Gabe Trio, and Jameel Farruk
Plastic Soldiers
Plastic Soldiers are a father and son duo. Fusing two lifetimes that were musically intertwined, the Soldiers are excited to share their special brand of rock ’n roll with a larger audience. Bill Mecaughey—songwriter, guitarist, vocalist, and project visionary has merged his musical gifts with his son, Todd. The younger Mecaughey contributes his formidable and complementary talents—engineering, drumming/percussion and bass playing— to create a broad range of freshly compelling music. Together, Bill and Todd bring to their debut album, “Borrowed Time”, over 60 years of music experience, much of it shared. This sonorous family heirloom was conceived in Bill’s Sunroom Studio, brought to life at Todd’s home-away-from-home, Cambridge Sound Studios, and mastered at Abbey Road Studios by world-renowned mastering engineer, Miles Showell. “Borrowed Time” represents the product of eight years of inspired familial collaboration. Plastic Soldiers have enlisted the talents of long-time friends and music talents: Gerald Busz, Alex Baranowski, Matthew Sommer and Rory Geoghegan to help bring this album to life. The combined 6-piece ensemble brings “Borrowed Time” to the stage in a special album release performance on February 1st at the Fallser Club!
