Hello folks,
[22 August edit: CDs are now available here and iTunes download here.]
I just wanted to let you know that I have a new EP called "Quit My Job EP" coming out on 22 August. It contains 5 tracks, 4 with lap steel.  (The digital release will also include a remix as a bonus track). Will post more news and some samples nearer the release - in the meantime here is the cover:
My 2009 album was a mellow affair based mainly around Weissenborn acoustic steel - this EP is mostly upbeat and I played my black Lap King Rodeo built by Jason DuMont on the tracks where the lap steel is more prominently featured (there is a load of instruments on the EP - percussion, double bass, accordion, cello, violin, drums, clarinet...).
Cheers,
Fred

Howdy Fred,
This is absolutely GREAT!!! You've got it now;-) Can't wait to purchase a copy for the hacienda. This is going to sound so good poolside (I've been working on my cement pond). All the best from Texas my friend- This is lovely.

| Just bought it on the Canadian iTunes. Listening now as I eat my breakfast. Great stuff Fred! Keep the music coming. It sure would be cool if you ever played Vancouver (or even Seattle or Portland). Although, I know we're a bit of a ways away... |

Tonu, on that recording I had the baritone tuned to E minor (G minor format) but at the moment it's tuned to B (D major format). Many thanks for your CD orders!
Cheers,
Fred
