DISCOVERED BY @LAMERELIZ AND @JAREDARTAUD IN THE ALAN VEGA ARCHIVES, LIVE AT MAX’S KANSAS CITY IS THE LATEST PREVIOUSLY UNHEARD RECORDING TO EMERGE FROM THE VEGA VAULT PROJECT. LIZ LAMERE, VEGA’S LONGTIME COLLABORATOR, WIFE, VEGA VAULT PROJECT LEADER AND CO-PRODUCER, AND JARED ARTAUD, CO-PRODUCER AND CREATIVE DIRECTOR OF THE VEGA VAULT PROJECT, CONTINUE TO EXPLORE AND DEVELOP VEGA’S AND @SUICIDEBANDOFFICIAL’S EXTENSIVE ARCHIVE, UNCOVERING RECORDINGS, ARTWORK AND OTHER MATERIAL THAT REVEAL NEW CHAPTERS OF HIS CREATIVE LIFE AND WORK.
