Legendary Shack Shakers

Introducing the Dirt Daubers!

// August 17th, 2011 // News

Mixing acoustic rockabilly, blues, jazz and country into a thrilling Frankenstein hybrid, The Dirt Daubers (named after the southern slang term for a stingless wasp that builds mud-clumps in the corners of old barns) are proud to debut their new album Wake Up, Sinners, a collection of raw originals and covers, recorded together in real time… in a big, live, open room… “the Real Man way!” The album also features Mark Robertson from the Shack Shakers. It will be in stores on September 13, but you can pre-order it now at Bandcamp. The CD pre-orders comes with an autographed copy of my comic, Grim Hymns.

Here’s a video of our first single: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cs-Elft_EGQ

I hope you’ll come see us out on the road,
