Plain was launched in 1993 by Brian Saxon(Satan's Cheerleaders), Glenn Habas, Nathaniel Bigger and John Ellis.  Singer Dmitra Smith(Voodoo Dolly, Ex's With Benefits, Static People)joined in 1994.  Inspired by vintage tremolo, fuzz guitar and a low-fi aesthetic, Plain recorded most of their songs on a 4-track in a basement apartment in San Francisco's Mission district.  The band released a debut 7" vinyl "Diamond Finish", with two singles in 1994 on Nathanus Records and a 12" vinyl follow up "Queenie" in 1995. In 2012 Dmitra recorded vocals on some of Brian and John's newer tracks.  They are included here along with the old sad hits.

The Yuletide Repair Kit was launched in 2003 by guitarists Brian and Andrew Saxon, drummer John Ellis, bassist Chris Sheldon and singers Jester Banks and Nat Bigger. The purpose of the Yuletide Repair Kit is to electromagnetically bring forth the joys of the holiday season to the weary, forlorn, and downright dubious populace. Inspired by vintage tremolo, fuzz guitar, and a low-fi aesthetic, the Yuletide Repair Kit recorded all of their songs in a garage in San Francisco. The Yuletide Repair Kit uses old Musicman Amps and Fender guitars exclusively.
