On
April 29, M.C. Records released Tommy Malone's second solo effort for the label,
Poor Boy. Tommy co-produced
the recording with his longtime musical friend Ray Ganucheau in New Orleans. Ray
was the engineer for the Subdudes' "Primitive Streak" and Tommy's first solo
recording, "Soul
Heavy."
Poor Boy features
Tommy's unique songwriting that bleeds true Americana. The one amazing exception
is Tommy covering Stevie Wonder's "Big Brother."
You can listen the new release via Airplay
Direct. The
first 11 songs are from Poor Boy , the next 12 are from
his 2013 release, "Natural Born Days." Click the cover for

Direct Session. Click the photo to check out the performance/interview.

Poor Boy is getting
serious reviews!
This third solo
release and second on M.C. Records by Tommy Malone, front-man for the popular
New Orleans bluesy-rock band, The Subdudes, offers a soothing, laid-back feel
and a dash of Southern charm.
The Toledo
Blade
"Poor Boy" mines the Americana vein with
sophistication and grit. Its songs run the gamut from layered, Beatleish
psych-pop to rock-infused soul, with a consistent thread of eloquent, gut-level
storytelling skill.
The Times
Picayune
What raises his personal bar on Poor Boy is the
confident comfort that is a part of each track, and the album as a whole.
The Alternate Root
Tommy Malone makes
music that alternately soothes and fires up the soul. He’s always been able to
do that, and it’s clear on Poor Boy that it’s become second nature for him.
Something
Else
With Poor Boy,
Tommy Malone has released another album full of great
songs complete with excellent guitar work and singing that should extend his
stellar musical reputation beyond the cognoscenti and to the general public,
where it deserves to be. OffBeat
You'll learn a lot about Tommy Malone s world after
hearing his third, and arguably finest solo album, Poor
Boy. Americana Boogie
Tommy Malone is not only one of
the greatest songwriters of his generation, he’s a superb guitarist and a
magnificent vocalist who animates every corner of his compositions. Over the
past 40 years Malone has been at the center of some of the most storied and
often star-crossed bands in Louisiana history, beginning with the family band
formed with two of his brothers, Dustwoofie. Malone went on to help develop the
eccentric songwriters’ collective the Continental Drifters before becoming a
charter member of the still-beloved subdudes. Along the way he played in the
well regarded one-off groups Tiny Town and Monkey Ranch as well as in a duo with
his older brother Dave from the Radiators, the Malone Brothers. Poor Boy
marks the third solo recording in his storied career.
Tommy Malone has a bunch of dates solo and with the
Subdudes.
