Career

In 2004 Connie Price put out an EP, Blood's Haul, on the Stones Throw imprint Now Again with UK drummer Malcom Catto, and that same year the instrumental album Wildflowers was released featuring members of Funk Inc., Poets Of Rhythm and L.A. Carnival. A second EP, Sticks & Stones, was released in 2005, a collection of live performances, a b-side, and a dub remix of the first cut from the LP. Three years later the band put out the Tell Me Something album on Ubiquity Records, which featured guest appearances from Percee P, Ohmega Watts, Wildchild, Soup/Daakir from Jurassic 5, Aloe Blacc and Freestyle Fellowship's Myka Nyne among others.

From 2007 to 2009 Connie Price & the Keystones became one of two main backing bands on Scion's Live Metro series. In 2014 Connie Price and the Keystones released four songs from their forthcoming third full length entitled "Lucas High" due out in 2015, a tribute to session man Doug Lucas, featuring his son Zach.
