The new album is called Entitled Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Your Anger , and is due June 5th from XOXO Records / Anchor & Hope Music. Promised to be "stylistically adventurous", the 14-track outing was produced by Brian Deck (Modest Mouse, Iron [...]

Words by Vicki I've been away from Pittsburgh for over 5 weeks now, and homesickness has begun to set in. Predictably, music has been my cure. First up was classic rock, starring my favorite guilty pleasure, Boston , and Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' Greatest Hits album. Then I went for local Pittsburgh artists, playing Nik & the Central Plains , Donora , and New Shouts over and over. Now I'm craving good 'ol Americana, as rootsy and rough around the [...]
