Drug Money

Drug Money was formed as a power duo in 2001 when former solo acoustic artist Fisher Meehan joined forces with drummer Paul Conrad. The group caught the attention of Hybrid Recordings at A CBGB's show and quickly signed with the label. Bassist Bill Reynolds of the Sub Pop band the Blue Rags soon signed on. Before entering the studio to record the band's debut, Conrad left the band and the Blue Rags' Mike Rhodes took over drumming duties for the record. DrugMoney soon found a permanent drummer in Jamie Stirling, as well as adding keyboardist Tyler Ramsey who is now the bassist with Band of Horses. The group recorded their first full-length, Mtn Cty Jnk in New York with renowned producer Wharton Tiers.
