   About heiskell
  Former lead singer of the Judybats, Jeff Heiskell will be releasing his first true solo CD, 'Clip-on Nose Ring' on November 14th, 2008. A host of talented players have resulted in a stellar recording of melodious poppy, folky gems.

In 2007, Heiskell released the first self-titled debut, 'Soundtrack For An Aneurism'. Contemplative and, by turns, haunting, this collection of songs, produced by former Superdrag drummer, Don Coffey, captures the glittering, shiney side of sadcore.

Knoxville, Tennessee's, The Judybats were staples on early to mid-nineties college radio. During the groups four CD contract with Sire/Warner Bros. they toured nationally, strongest followings being Baltimore, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, and the Chicago area. Strong play on college radio yielded the Top Ten hit 'Being Simple' whose video was in regular rotation for several months on MTV.

With this latest collection of songs - writing on a thrift store acoustic, seated in a rocking chair in his basement - Heiskell let the muse take him where it would.

"Holy shit," Heiskell laughs. "I drank a bunch of cheap wine, banged on my guitar, and all of these fellas came tumbling out. I've taken to referring to this project as 'My big fat gay CD'. Although there a tune about a woman from my past. She's sure to know who she is - or was - or might have been."

Per guitarist and collaborator Tim Lee: "'Clip-On Nose Ring' mixes a variety of influences, including rock, folk and dance music, in which former Judybats singer/songwriter Jeff Heiskell's plumbs his own psyche for material, adopting a scorched earth approach that leaves no topic unexplored."

A CD release show in Knoxville will be followed by TBA dates in the Fall and Winter.
