Hey friends -

We’re excited to say that “Save Me, Clara” is the NPR song of the day today (May 28th)!  (Click the NPR logo above to see the article).  Thanks so much to the kind folks at NPR and to the always amazing Barbara Mitchell for a great write up and post.  We love NPR  : )

Hi friends -

Just a quick note to say thanks to the kind folks at The Big Takeover magazine who put our new album, The King Can Drink the Harbour Dry, in their top 5 for their latest issue – the very cool music magazine is available at most major bookstores…

Thanks to Jack Rabid and co. at The Big Takeover and we very much hope to make it out to the east coast this summer – hope you all are having a great week and see you soon,

Johnny

The Dimes at St. Cupcake from The Penny Jam on Vimeo.

The Penny Jam is a video series out of Portland that features artists in unique locales…so when asked where we’d like to shoot, we naturally chose a cupcake shop. A huge thanks to Portland’s beloved St. Cupcake for letting us in the doors…and for sparing a few cupcakes…and to Scott Carver and The Penny Jam Team for inviting us and for the great film work -

“Abigail, Don’t Be Long” is one of the songs slated to appear on our upcoming record, “The King Can Drink the Harbor Dry”, due out this fall. You can also find an early demo of this song here…

Here’s hoping you have a great week -

Looking through all the blog posts and demos over the past few months, I realized that I hadn’t ever post a version of the song that started all this historic Boston madness…so here it is in it’s finished form. We actually decided to keep the original acoustic and vocal tracks from the demo on this one, adding a few little pieces here and there to round out the arrangement – Ehren’s old world sounding lap steel solo for example…feel free to download or stream the song from the link below:

We’re also hoping to have the final album artwork done in the coming weeks and I’ll make sure to post a picture of the album cover and the final track listing once we have it. Until then, enjoy the song and keep in touch…

Have a great week and we’ll see you soon -
