"DRANKIN' SONGS" ON CD!!!!

The CD Release Party for our debut album; DRANKIN SONGS, will be at Kochanski's Concertina Beer Hall on Saturday May 18th. 21+ show, $5 cover. 
CD's will be available for $10.

As you may have caught on Facebook and through word on the street, DRANKIN' SONGS is now available on CD. This was a lengthy process due to artwork for the CD, we actually went through 2 designers, and the second one was American Radio Police's Aaron Valentine (his company is JWD-Creative). The first draft of the artwork took over 4 months, and the finished product was unusable, so we went to Aaron during his busiest season, and it took time to get the finished product. Our final decission was that it was worth the wait for the perfection of the artwork, and perfect it is. Also, we went with the decission to wait for release until Dana was back from Utah.

We recieved the CDs yesterday, we had them pressed by Sooper Dooper out of Madison; great guys with great turnaround time. This is the first album to be distributed through Sealed Juvenile Records.

The CD has been brought to 91.7 FM WMSE (local college station here in Milwaukee that's part of the Milwaukee School of Engineering), as well as 88.9 FM Radio Milwaukee (independent station here in Milwaukee), so all our local fans (and not-so-local) can request songs on these stations and listen to them on air, or through the interwebs.

DRANKIN' SONGS is also available for download through iTunes, Amazon Mp3, Google, Zune, and xBox.

Again we like to thank Shane over at Howell Street Recordings, Mike at Redline for mastering, Aaron Valentine at JWD-Creative, and all our fans who have supported us to this point. On a personal note, this is only the 2nd professionally produced album I've been a part of, and this is by far the most effort that's gone into any recording I've been a part of. I have to thank Mike and Dana for letting me be a part of it, and putting up with my creative rants.

We're in the process of amassing material for the 2nd album. The idea is a double album entitled On The Wagon, and Off The Wagon. I don't want to give away too much on what the project will entail, but I will say we've been talking to some friends in the music scene, and we have a few surprises for all y'all!!

SEE YA ON MAY 18th!!!!!
