Compilations
Soccer Team is the work of Ryan Nelson and Melissa Quinley. Ryan, an employee of Dischord Records, also is in the Routineers and formerly played in both Most Secret Method and Beauty Pill. Melissa is a former employee of Dischord. The songs on Soccer Team's record were primarily recorded to 8-track 1/4" tape, and / or 4-track cassette, by Ryan, in Southeast Washington, DC. The songs are a result of desultory late nights, Ryan's gifted, unfailing profusion of ideas and sounds, and Melissa's occasionally obdurate 2¢. Although principally a recording project, Soccer Team has been playing select shows as a trio with Justin Moyer (Antelope, ex- Supersystem) on drums.
