Looking forward to the weekend at the Minnesota State Fair. Hope everyone can make it out. We have all the CD's in print and also the new one "Viva La Twang!"....some T-shirts...photos and kittens...(maybe not kittnes?). For the MP3ers we have released the first single from the CD, "Six Nights Of Sin" with a b-side "Coffee Stains Waltz" on Download card. Hope to get a few of the new ones into the show both Friday & Saturday.
Info about the songs... Six Nights Of Sin, kind of speaks for itself... it was written for my Uncle Junior, who claimed he was as bad as Bobby Vee was good! Not a bad claim to fame. The song pretty much tells the story of good ol' Uncle Junior.
Coffee Stains Waltz...a road trip tune. Over the years I really wanted to write this song...it finally showed up.
When I was young growing up in LA, as a family we would road trip every Summer camping out etc...to a lake home in Detroit Lakes MN. My father had this tape that he would play over and over again, we would fall asleep to it...wake up to it. To this day I remember those road trips from the songs on that tape...like a lullaby, songs of Summer. It was a blue tape. We called it "The Coffee Stains Tape", because the only real way to ID it from other tapes was that it had coffee stains on the label from sitting on the dash.
Cool stuff.
Hope to see you this weekend!
