Local Man Dies
OUT NOW.
(12/06/24)

The Cursed Album Local Man Dies.
It has reached completion.
The grand shambolic document.
Our maximalist record.

Our relationship with this record is ever changing.
It first was hyper localised and close to us.
Time caused it to drift and became distant,
but this also allowed us to look at it from a distance, as if from someone else’s perspective. Or another bands perspective. The situation gave us license to deal with it and treat it as if it was someone else’s. Being aware of it’s cursedness reminded us to be take care and be easy when dealing with it. The process of making it also took us away from it, it was a process of assembly, disassembly, reassembly, and transference. The concept contained in the album leaked out and involved itself in the creating of the album.
Localness becoming Non Local/Unlocal. Not having played these songs live also added that other dimension, although we did play some:

Ta**ry Manor Crope (B Section) - 02/07/2020
Plague of Locus - Many times
Hiatus Song - 12/3/21
(gate) - First show w Alex (2018)

Foreign Bastard came out 10 years ago today.

(You can now read the sung version of the lyrics on bandcamp today (BC Friday)

This cycle of the band is Complete.
From Foreign birth to Local Death.
Foreign Bastard came out 10 years ago today.
This cycle of this band is Complete.
In this we tried to contain the experience of experience.
Took some effort. I’m not sure if we pulled it off or not.
We’ll see.
Cheers,
Gláss

January 2025!

January 2025!

It’s time.

Oh, sweet friends, is it ever time.

Mark your calendars (for Jan. 30, Jan. 31 and Feb. 1). Get a sitter. Call an Uber. Get a hotel room. Whatever you do, make places to be at Relix Variety Theatre for Waynestock XIII, because it’s going to be so many things for so many people.

First of all, it’s a worthy cause, because this year’s beneficiary is RadioKCM, a subsidiary of Knoxville Community Media. The upstart organization is a response to the dust kicked up in the local radio scene back in the spring, and money raised at Waynestock will help purchase equipment so that sweet “On the Air” light shines brightly soon enough.

Secondly, it’s medicine for the weary soul. Last year was a so*******ch, to quote a certain singer-songwriter, and in late January, certain occurrences in the federal seats of power will serve as a glaring reminder. Waynestock is the place where you can leave all that behind. Inside the doors of our forever home in Happy Holler, it’s nothing but love, baby, because nothing feels more like a family reunion than Waynestock.

There are good reasons for that, but a big one is the way Waynestock has long served as a balm for pain. Hell, it was born out of tragedy, but that’s what we do in Knoxville: Get together and make it better by rocking out. Which is exactly what we’re gonna do.

Thursday is a tribute to a beloved friend we lost too soon this year, Laith Keilany. It’s only appropriate, we think, that the trio of songwriters who kick it off – featuring new up-and-comer Moran and veteran rocker and tunesmith Kevin Abernathy – includes Singer Songwriter, Karen E. Reynolds, one of the beneficiaries whose health struggles served as last year’s Waynestock cause.

They’ll be followed by the Jodie Manross Band, of which Laith was long a part, and then the sounds of that Americana pistol, Trisha Gene Brady, and her new band the In-Betweens. Christina Horn’s Feral Kytty project brings night one to a close.

Night two begins with the lovely Appalachian folk-and-roll of The Lonetones, leading right into the psychedelic cumbia/Appalachian soupcon that is Rica Chicha. At 9 p.m., we’re over-the-moon thrilled to welcome a reunion of the man who set a world record at Bonnaroo for most hugs given and the band that rocked with him there: Jonathan Sexton and The Big Love Choir! Thrift Store Cowboys and The New Romantics - Knoxville carry us on to the end of night two, which will be brought to a close by the indefatigable Mercy Lights, one of our favorite bands ever.

Saturday begins with the delicate grooves of Shayla McDaniel and her band, followed by the ethereal alt-country of nightjar. Brendon James Wright & the Wrongs mark a first-time Waynestock appearance for a guy who hasn’t played with his old outfit in a hot minute, and we can’t wait to hear what Tennessee Love Connection brings to the Waynestock stage. Night three also includes the reunion of Medford's Black Record Collection for only the second time since 2011, and if that doesn’t make you excited to hear some murder ballads and foot-stomping country rock, we don’t know what will.

Finally, the finale. Last year, Beare curated a mind-blowing eulogy to all of the artists lost in 2023, and after Wayne Kramer of the MC5 died during last Waynestock weekend, they worked up a cover of “Kick Out the Jams” with six guitarists, two or three vocalists and a hundred fans in the audience screaming deliriously to every lyric. It was truly a spectacle to behold, and the fact that they’re pledging to outdo themselves this year has us on the verge of ecstasy.

And you can be a part of it all. It’s only $10 per night at the door, and that includes a raffle ticket. We’ve got a great group of sponsors helping us with this annual undertaking, including Blank Newspaper, CIRCA Wear, Top Hat Recording, Sweet P's Barbeque & Downtown Dive, Raven Records & Rarities, The Arbor Studio, Fusion Backline and Next Level Brewing Company. Can’t say enough about all those folks, because if it weren’t for them (and Daniel over at Relix), we’d be just a trio of dudes with big ideas and not much else.

Y’all … we need this, and we think you do too. Just a couple of months from now, we’re gonna hug you so fierce you may need oxygen, and we expect you to give it right back.

Love y’all. Let’s rock. Viva le Waynestock.

This will not stop until we make it stop.

This will not stop until we make it stop.

Another Upstate bar has announced it will close due to rising costs and liquor liability insurance.
