"Combining the Gun Club’s appealing sordidness with the swagger and charm of Gram Parsons, The Preacher’s Son Princes of the Kingdom is a refreshing addition to a genre Gabriel Hart (Starvations, Fortune’s Flesh) has been building in Los Angeles; and to a smaller degree, a sound the Deadly Snakes in Canada tinkered with before their demise last year. Everything is here—American music: Doc Pomus, Lightin’ Hopkins, Jeffrey Lee Pierce; American literature: Carson McCullers, Faulkner and Flannery O’Connor. It’s drunk, it’s dirty; The Preacher’s Son is about sin and redemption. It’s no coincidence these happen to be some of my favorite topics…A brief highlight in an otherwise dismal sea of uninteresting music." - Ryan Leach, Razorcake
just so you know even though I wasn't in the room when you were playing I was outside listening and I heard "I saw the Light"!!! Church at Tangier..love it!!! great to see you guys! C xo
Are you really rockin the Uke these days? I've been playing for a couple years now. I'm not any good at it, but maybe we should hook up for dueling ukes or something. Could be interesting. I can also play a mean gutbucket.
