Legendary Shakc Shakers -The Southern Surreal

Apparently:  "First new album in five years from explosive Southern wrecking crew. Features guest appearances from Billy Bob Thornton and Duane Denison (The Jesus Lizard). Touring throughout the US and Europe September 2015 to February 2016. Vinyl includes digital download card. The infamous, explosive Southern wrecking crew The Legendary Shack Shakers are back with a brand new full length titled The Southern Surreal. Their first release in five years, the album lands on the band's 20th anniversary and is their Alternative Tentacles debut. In conjunction with its release, the band will tour across much of the United States and Europe this Fall. The Legendary Shack Shakers' incendiary interpretations of the blues, punk, rock and country are all-at-once irreverent, revisionist, dangerous and fun. Built upon a haunting, Southern Gothic theme, The Southern Surreal is a fifteen-track set featuring regular band members Colonel JD Wilkes (vocals, harmonica, banjo), Rod Hamdallah (electric guitar), Mark Robertson (electric and upright bass) and Brett Whitacre (drums), with guest appearances by actor / musician and longtime Shack Shakers fan Billy Bob Thornton, and Jesus Lizard guitarist Duane Denison. Although not legendary upon being named, the Shack Shakers have grown into their reputation due to their six critically acclaimed studio albums, often heavy touring schedule and songs that have been featured on television shows such as HBO s True Blood. Past tour mates and fans include Reverend Horton Heat, Rancid, The Black Keys, Slim Cessna's Auto Club and Hank Williams III. Robert Plant is also a noted Legendary Shack Shakers fan, and picked the band to open for him on his 2005 tour of Europe."
