The Ledge #659: New Releases Pt. 2

The second episode of March's new release series is jam packed with quality new tunes. There's the usual lengthy set of brand new Rum Bar releases, including some highights of the upcoming free Swagger Second Shot compilation. Big Stir Records is represented by the latest by Chris Church. There are old faves such as Bob Mould, The Liminanas, Jason Isbell, and Gary Louris of The Jayhawks. Vista Blue celebrates the return of baseball with "Clearing the Benches". The Tubs and Horsegirl have new sophomore efforts as strong as their debuts.

But what excites me the most this week are the first two tunes of the show. "(That Ain't One I'm) Willin' to Lose" marks the Ledge debut of Sioux Falls songwriter Meriwether Raindelay & The Original Star Band. I'm hoping it's the beginning of a series of fabulous releases.

And there is also the latest by The Ex-Bombers. The wrestling nerd that I am loves the fact that they have yet another theme for the ring, and this time "He's a Bad, Bad Man" is the entrance theme for NWA's Jeremiah Plunkett. Even better is that the band AND Plunkett recorded intros for the show!
