Great American Taxi

We are pleased to announce the release of our new studio recording, Paradise Lost, recorded earlier this year in Nashville, TN and produced by Todd Snider. You can now pre-order it for only $10 and the first 100 people to do so will get signed copies! In addition to Todd, the record also features guest performances from Tim O’Brien, Elizabeth Cook and Barry Sless.

To support the release we will be hitting the road this fall to many of our favorite places as well as a few new ones. After a swing through the Midwest we’ll be at Yonder’s Harvest fest for a couple days in October and opening a few shows for moe. in Texas in November, followed by our annual pilgrimage to the west coast for harvest tour! We hope to see you all out there.

As fall gets closer we wanted to alert you to our next round of shows and say thanks for another great summer! There were too many stellar shows to mention them all but we went coast to coast and to Alaska, too. We also got to conspire with our Buddy Todd Snider at different spots around the country, which is always a blast.

After playing our hometown festival, NEDFEST, tomorrow, we’ll be heading to Copper Country Festival over Labor Day weekend and then on to the Midwest the following week. That run culminates at a brand new, great looking festival called Shoe Fest, which will take place at historic
 Stonehouse 
Park 
in
 Earlville, 
IL over September 9, 10 and 11. We hope to see you all out at this one!

We also wanted to let you know that we are putting the finishing touches on a new Taxi record that will be released in September and was produced by none other than our buddy, the aforementioned Todd Snider.
