I have no problem bumping my own music on this blog. If you do, let's fight. But before that, you should check out these new Waylon Thornton and the Heavy Hands' songs.
John Dickerson over at Slate wrote up a very nice piece on a small time musical act called Girlyman. I don't particularly care for this band. Regardless, the story does a good job illustrating the struggles and triumphs of being a small touring band.
Bloodshot Bill is in Paris right now on tour and some French website made this video/interview of him. It's totally cool and totally in English. The website, however, is all in French and made me feel like a moderate retard. Just click the big "PLAY" button.
Also, Bloodshot Bill will be doing a free digital single for my label, White Moon Recordings later in the year. For more on that, check out the White Moon Recordings blog (http://www.whitemoonrecordings.com)
