Mephisto Potato Sauce

The debut: blues and Venetian legends

Mephisto Potato Sauce begins The Beards’ recording journey: stories and legends of the Venetian countryside told through country and blues. Released by Ancient Records, it brings the imagery of the Riviera del Brenta into a musical language that also speaks to American audiences.

The band’s original chronology dates the record to 2006. Digital catalogues may carry later dates; this page retains the original edition as its reference.
