"Lullaby for the Working Class
Spare, mellow, almost ambient alt-country band from the late 90s.
I'm almost embarrassed that I'm only discovering them now.
Unbelievably great.
Some loose personnel associations with Bright Eyes.

We're beyond tickled to announce that the new Chris Richards and the Subtractions - Get Yer La La's Out- (Gangplank Records) is now available (CD and Download) and you have choices to make.
The very limited vinyl version (on white vinyl- I know, fancy) will be available in June.
We had a blast making this record and really hope you dig the hell out of it.
Our release party will take place on 6/22 at the Berkley Front (your paid admission will also score you a CD- so plan accordingly)
CD Store or Digital Store (vinyl coming soon)
The CD and LP will also soon be available at a variety of places (CD Baby, JAM Records, Kool Kat Musik, ITunes, etc)

(Assuming Chris is either here or will have this shown to him)....
Hi Chris --
I met you and Keith at Rick (of Paranoid Lovesick)'s place in Cleveland many moons ago. Very glad you're still active, and I'm looking forward to hearing some new stuff.
"Seagirl" will always be one of my all-time favorite power pop songs. I was honored to sing it with you that night.
If you're still in touch with Keith, please tell him hello from me.
Best,
Mike McKay

Anna Borg commented on Anna Borg's blog post I totally met Michael Nesmith and I didn't pass out"It's truly incredible, how his attitude seems to have changed. He PERFORMED with the remaining Monkees, something I swear he said he would never do again after the '80s. It is baffling. As for the meeting, he was so gracious and answered…"

And Anna, it is WAY cool to meet Mr. Nesmith. In all of my readings, he was very reclusive and didn't make public appearances...and damn sure didn't reaffirm his former…"

So Mike Nesmith. Yeah. WTF, right? Private, reclusive, mysterious for many years. A couple of years back, he got on Facebook and he posts long, winding tales about himself, his dogs, his home, his past, and a really lovely Mother's Day post last weekend. Photos go up. The whole thing. It's like he disappeared and then came back on his own terms. I didn't know how to take it. I'm a huge Monkees fan, no doubt. And, being a woman/girl of a certain age, I have a favorite and that favorite is Mike.…See More
