"The Ride of Our Lives" Released!

Early reviews have been kind; Steven Ferra over at the Absolute Powerpop blog opined that “Robinson is a class act, and this EP was worth the wait.”, while Music To Eat blogger, Rob Caldwell included it in his Top 15 of 2011. Further, critic, Malcolm Carter included it in his end of the year Top 10 list. He also wrote a pearler of a review at Pennyblack Music, commenting: “As usual Robinson takes normal, everyday pleasures and fears, and sets them to outstanding melodies, leaving us to wonder why the hell he isn’t selling shed loads of albums.”

Ha! Answers on a postcard please…

Flowery Praise...

"Bird's Eye is another triumphant collection of sophisticated adult pop." So says 

Absolute Powerpop .

Be there... or be elsewhere.

Every Monster Review

UK-based music site Penny Black Music had some rather nice things to say about Steve Connelly's Every Monster release. You can read the review
here.
For those of you unfashionable enough not to already have your very own copy of this little gem, CD Baby now have it available for purchase in both hard copy and download form. If iTunes is more your type of a la carte baby, pay them a visit; they have it too.

New Sunshine Drenchy Release!

Steve Connelly's long awaited and much anticipated solo album has finally seen the light of day. Is it worth the wait? Of course it bloody well is!

Connelly and The Headlights’ rhythm section—bassist Scott Dempster and drummer Danny DiPietra, along with old friends Ed Woltil of The Ditchflowers (guitar and vocals) and Brad Trumbull (keyboards and vocals) form the live performance unit of Steve Connelly and the Lesser Gods, and the band will appear live at the Official “Every Monster” CD Release Party on Saturday, June 5, at Skipper’s Smokehouse, in Tampa, along with special guests Greymarket, Dear Old Liar and Danny & Alex.

Look out - there are Ditchflowers about! (A quick note from Ed Ditchflower)

Hello Diggers,

Just a quick note to alert everyone to a pair of Ditchflowers appearances this weekend. First, tomorrow night we're at Gasoline Alley in Largo with John Wesley, Geri X, and Sisemore. Our set is at 9:30, but come at 8:00 and plan to stay for a night of excellent music.

Next, we're doing a set at New World Brewery, Ybor City, Saturday night at 8:30. This should be another great night of tuneage, with scads of great local original bands promoting the release of the latest BAAMO compilation CD, which includes our own "Love, The Conqueror," a little preview of our second album (later this year, updates as they come, you'll be the first to know, etc.). Ten dollars gets you in the door AND the BAAMO CD. Check out the BAAMO site:


That's it...sorry for the late notice. How unlike me to be late! Hope to see you soon...

Luv,

Ed

Live Ditchflowers...

The Ditchflower dudes will be taking time out of their hectic recording schedule to open the proceedings at The Subdudes show at Skippers Smokehouse. Do go out and see them won't you? Oh, and don't forget to ask them when the new CD will be ready. They love that.
