about

Jonathan Postal has had an extensive music career fronting three different bands throughout the 1970s and ‘80s. Raised in New York City he ended up in San Francsico during the late ‘70s punk and new wave scene where he received a BFA in photography at the San Francisco Art Institute. His photo work shooting various bands on the SF scene led him to photo stints at CBS Records, Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, the Soho Weekly News and the Miami New Times. This 18-track collection compiles tracks from the three bands along with his own solo material.

Most popular and significant of those bands were the Readymades, an influential bay area group from that iconic period. The group released two singles with an album that were all compiled along with other unreleased material on the Liberation Hall 2021 release, “More Live Than Not: San Francsico 1978”. “All The Boys on St. Marks Place” features three unreleased Readymades tracks that feature the female new wave band the B Girls with Cynthia Ross and Xena Holiday on background vocals. Also features Bart Lewis on guitar who went on to form the NYC glam metal band Smashed Gladys.

In the early 1980s Postal moved back to New York where he formed the band The Odds. The group featured local playing legends Kenny Aaronson on bass (Rick Derringer, Bob Dylan, Billy Idol, The Yardbirds), Johnny Rao on guitar (David Johansen, Sylvain Sylvain) and the late Lee Crystal (Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, Sylvain Sylvain) on drums. The collection features 4 unreleased tracks from the NYC super group.

Jonathan’s next band The Gift contribute eight unreleased tracks that feature New York City local musicians Freddie Katz on guitar/vocals, Robert Koechel on bass and Johnny Decal on drums. The 18-track set is completed and rounded off with three solo Jonathan Postal tracks.

Jonathan currently resides in Memphis performing with his band the Rattlesnake Whips. He continues with his art and is the creator of Postal Guitars. For more info check out their site here: www.postalguitars.com
