Many Things Happening

Hello Pals,
There are many things happening around here that a few of you might like to know about:

1. There will be a new Those Poor Bastards limited edition 7″ record coming out this summer called “Is This Hell?” It will also be available as a digital download for you modern creatures.

2. There will be a new Lonesome Wyatt and the Holy Spooks album coming out this fall called “Heartsick.” The sound is very different than TPB. It consists of twelve slow, sad songs accompanied by piano, ukulele and keyboard.

3. Work has begun on a new album with Rachel Brooke. It’ll be a collection of ghost and supernatural waltzes and ballads. We’re still pretty early on in the creation process of this one, so it probably won’t come out until sometime next year.

4. A new website will also be going up in the next few months. There will be a complete discography/lyrics section, updated store with new shirts etc, digital downloads, special discount codes for email list members and a lot of other exciting junk.

Oh yeah and if you want to join us on that evil facebook, here are the links:

Thanks a heap…

It’s like a country music carnival for an audience of lunatics.

Those Poor Bastards Melts Danielle Colby’s Face Off

Screen shot 2013-06-09 at 9.49.22 PM

The last concert I went to was… Those Poor Bastards with Rachel Brooke and Last False Hope, who were way better live than I ever anticipated. Those Poor Bastards melted my face off. I lay in bed at night and dream about that concert.
