bear801 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Anyone check this guy out yet? New Orleans based kid doing a kickass hybrid of blues/grunge/everything else. You can order the first single over at ATO. $5 on red vinyl. 500 pressed. His full LP also came out yesterday. Standard pressing for that. It unseats Benji as my album of the year. http://www.benjaminbookermusic.com http://atorecords.shop.musictoday.com/Product.aspx?cp=126_54314_66092&pc=ATLP84&view_in=Mobile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sh_tluck Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Ordered this a couple days ago after seeing him on Conan. Should be coming any day now. Stoked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somethingvinyl Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Dude's from Tampa but is billed from NOLA. Weird. I don't know how I feel about him. I've never heard of him, and we have locally popular bands that are unknown to the rest of the world. People who make a living gigging nightly at bars. There are elements that are appealing. I want to get the full length and I'll give it a chance. Thanks for throwing it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Shivers Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 I saw him open for Jack White last month and my jaw is still on the ground. I'm honestly very surprised there are still copies of this 7" left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bear801 Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 My copy arrived yesterday. Both songs are great. Ships UPS which is nice cuz the mailman has been destroying my 45s since the 90s. Its the first time ive been this excited about a new artist in a long time. Seeing him in about a month. Anyone even remotely curious go check out him out on youtube or something. Last week people were already trying to sell this shit on ebay and discogs for 40. Get it for 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmirish Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Thanks for topping this. just picked up the 7". Got the LP last month in a record of the month club I'm in with one of my local shops.

Chuck Shivers Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Looks like Rough Trade also released 500 red 7"s. No wonder why it's still in print. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
