- I’ve heard it said, and agree, that alt.country and Americana is country music for liberals. Todd Snider is once again reinforcing that idea for me. “Peace Queer” is the name of the new Snider’s new release and it is being touted as “his most political record yet.” You can hear the first track off the album “Mission Accomplished.”
- NineBullets.net has posted some tasty cuts from Chris Knight’s upcoming album, Heart of Stone (8/19.)
- Hank III’s site has posted release date for his upcoming release “Damn Right & Rebel Proud†– October 21, 2008 From the III site: The album is again self produced and will shake the guns right offa your rack! The first single will be “Long Hauls and Close Calls” – for which a video has also been produced that is full of muddin’, truckin’ and gunnin’! We thank our dysfunctional family for all of its support and patience in the release of this album. Always get comfortable here, and the official Myspace site for all the news you really need.
