THE TRI-STATE TROTLINE
From the Desk of...Captain Catfish
July 9, 2012
Boy, oh boy, we've got a lot of exciting news here for you Trotline Runners! Buckle up, 'cuz here goes....
Work on the "White Buffalo" is now complete, as we've mastered the recording at Salt Mastering in New York. Thanks to "Roscoe" Ambel and our Kickstarter donors, I have been privileged to created the most powerful, best-sounding work of my career. As a producer, Roscoe was a perfect fit and brought a great rock-n-roll swagger to this project. Hats off once again to Roscoe, Timbo & Mario at Cowboy Technical Services for a job well done.
I'll also mention here the great Tri-State Coalition and their stellar performance in the studio and on the road. Way to go, boys, I definitely can't do it alone! So, here's to MATT "PIZZLE" PIERCE, ERIC "CARLOS SAN PEDRO" CARLTON, RYAN "RANDO" ROGERS and our newest members, TERRENCE "T-MONEY" BISHOP & KELL KELLUM. With T-Money in the mix, we're taking Tri-State back to its roots, representing the great states of Arkansas, Mississippi and Tenn-o-see. We'll be seeing y'all out there on the road this summer & Fall, bringing the sound of the "White Buffalo" directly to your doorstep.
I am also pleased to announce that Jimbo Mathus & The Tri-State Coalition's "White Buffalo" will be released in OCTOBER 2012 on Oxford's own FAT POSSUM label. I am thrilled at this new and unexpected development. Bruce Watson & Matthew Johnson there at the label loved the sound and really wanted to get behind it. We were able to work out the details quickly and get it done! This will insure higher visibility for "White Buffalo" and see that more folks get the chance to hear it. Can't thank you enough, Fat Possum, for this opportunity.
With a slot just secured in the Americana Music Awards showcase in Nashville and a full calendar for the rest of the summer, be assured, Trotline Runners, that your support is paying off...and the "White Buffalo" will rise in 2012.
Thank you & God bless you all,
James "Captain Catfish" Mathus
