Blurt Feature

Thanks Andy Tenille and Blurt Magazine for the great feature. You can read it here:

Blurt Online

Here is a juicy quote to get you started:
“We’re a fuckin’ rock ‘n roll band, man,” Ed says definitively. “This isn’t a hippie band. We don’t have that word-of-mouth granola factor. We’re certainly not a bunch of ringers that are gonna wow you with our fuckin’ chops. And we’re not some flavor-of-the-month indie hipster band with tight jeans, thick-rimmed glasses and whiney voices that gets on the right blog and blows up overnight. We don’t really fit into any of these categories, or whatever, which is kinda like Lobos. Maybe Steve saw that in us.”
