  • WIDESPREAD PANIC to RELEASE THEIR 12Th STUDIO ALBUM STREET DOGS on SEPTEMBER 25TH on VANGUARD RECORDS
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JUNE 2015 WIDESPREAD PANIC TO RELEASE THEIR 12th STUDIO ALBUM STREET DOGS ON SEPTEMBER 25TH ON VANGUARD RECORDS LONG AWAITED FIRST ALBUM IN FIVE YEARS RECORDED LIVE IN THE STUDIO A FIRST IN A 30 YEAR CAREER Nashville, TN – Seminal band Widespread Panic has announced the September 25th release of Street Dogs, their long-awaited twelfth studio album on Vanguard Records. Panic recorded Street Dogs as a band, live in the studio, for the first time. The result is the most fun the veteran sextet has had making an album, which is apparent upon first listen. Widespread Panic’s large and loyal legions of fans have waited five years, since the release of 2010’s critically acclaimed Dirty Side Down, for a new offering from the group, and the 10 tracks on Street Dogs are sure to reward their patience, and likely turn on a few more. For almost 30 years, Widespread Panic has been known for their masterful improvisational style, but their core has always been built around songwriting. Incorporating a vast range of styles, Panic’s songs run the gamut from compelling narratives to poignant ballads to southern blues to progressive jazz and rock. Street Dogs is a testament to how a veteran band can remain vibrant, relevant and continue to progress. The folk/jazz infused “Angels Don’t Sing The Blues”, the flowing “Poorhouse of Positive Thinking”, the boogie blues of “Street Dogs for Breakfast” and the epic New Orleans inspired “Cease Fire”, with it’s Radiohead-like interlude, have a swing and a swagger the runs through much of the album.

  • Hard Working Americans: the First Waltz Biography
    Hard Working Americans: The First Waltz Biography Hard Working Americans is a mission as much as a band. Loose-limbed, freak flag waving specters caper inside this freshly minted but quicksilver evolving unit where the boogie politics of Haight-Ashbury canoodle with southern muscle, blue-collar understanding, and a bold rallying cry for true American individualism, freedom and community. “The description of church I got as a kid – a joyous celebration of life and gratitude - was nothing like the reality of it, and I feel like this band is a spiritual outlet that lives up to the description,” says lead singer, professional scallywag and People’s Preacher Todd Snider. “I feel like I’m the small part of a bigger thing. I think the deepest thing music does is make people dance and Hard Working Americans is here to make folks move.” Formed in late 2013, HWA comprises Snider, bassist Dave Schools (Widespread Panic), guitarist Neal Casal (Chris Robinson Brotherhood), keyboardist Chad Staehly (Great American Taxi), drummer Duane Trucks and guitarist Jesse Aycock. “We all agree it’s our job to challenge people. What’ve we got to lose? And it’s easy with this group of musicians,” says Schools. “We have these two young bucks, Jesse Aycock and Duane Trucks, who are just so in love with and dedicated to the craft and eager to try anything. And then you’ve got guys like Neal, Chad and me who’ve been through a million situations of varying levels of success, so we’ve got the point of view that we can get away with whatever we want in this band.

Clapton is the only three-time inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: once as a solo artist, and separately as a member of The Yardbirds and Cream. Clapton has been referred to as one of the most important and influential guitarists of all time.[3] Clapton ranked fourth in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time"[4] and fourth in Gibson's Top 50 Guitarists of All Time.[5] In the mid sixties, Clapton left the Yardbirds to play blues with John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers. In his one-year stay with Mayall, Clapton gained the nickname "Slowhand", and graffiti in London declared "Clapton is God." Immediately after leaving Mayall, Clapton formed with drummer Ginger Baker and bassist Jack Bruce, the power trio, Cream, in which Clapton played sustained blues improvisations and "arty, blues-based psychedelic pop." For most of the seventies, Clapton's output bore the influence of the mellow style of J.J.
