Band MembersRussell - Guitar, Singing, Ukulele, Harmonium, Glockenspiel, Other Stuff that trips out

and the Wolf Choir (but not limited to):
Spencer Cullum - Pedal Steel, Bass
Pat Kenneally - Hammond, Keys
Tom Maxwell - Drums, Percussion
George Gargan - Bass

Influencesmoments where people are true humans, diy, punk ethics, books, pictures, TV shows, movies, popular culture, family, friends, work, fear, failure, hope, regret, celebrities, infactuations, the first sip of whiskey and the last taste of vomit, the hum of my computer fan at 1am, the ache of my eyes at 5am, the heat of my breath at night, the arguing from the neighbours below me, Larry David, comics, dreams & nightmares, the sound of the traffic, the heat of summer and the chill of winter, Mulder' slamdowns, the beat in a club and the intoxication in my stomach, late nights and early mornings, the 20's blues, 1930's

Here's a small list of music I like: Beach Boys, Elliott Smith, Neutral Milk Hotel, Kevin Devine, Built To Spill, Life Without Buildings, Smog, Will Oldham, Geoff Farina, Jason Molina, Sean Watkins, Radiohead, Neil Young, Bob Nanna, The Cardigans, Tim Kasher, Ben Gibbard, The Weepies, Teenage Fan Club, Mock Orange, NOFX, Tom Brosseau, Chris Thile, Inspection 12, Chet Baker, System And Station, Eisley, Simon And Garfunkel, Couterfit, Miles Davis, Nickel Creek, Guster, Lagwagon

The list is endless, but I don't have the talent to sound like these guys.

Sounds Likelower calibre of any other acoustic tripe out there
pop songs sang slow
not wet music
simple songs with simple melodies with simple lyrics about simple things
"I think my girlfriend might like your music"
"Earnest, bitter, angst-ridden and all too much for 3pm. He had free CD’s on offer. I don’t know if he got rid of them."

Thanks Russell, that's real kind of you to say.

I hadn't heard you 'til just then when you commented. The NOFX cover is immaculate, the pedal steel wins every time and I hope for us to play shows together one day. Yes!

Hi there,

Sorry for the late reply, too many people check this account and it gets confusing who's checked what.

Anyway, we're really looking forward to playing with you too. Looking forward to the whole thing, our first gig down south.

Take care,

Evan Gogh

Hey Russell, nice to meet you again. We don't have any upcoming songs with the words 'wolf choir' in them, but we'll let you know if any pop out of the ether and come knocking.
