I actually saw their cd in the Tower here in Atlanta.

The show here is already sold out.

epa in 10... 9...

8, 7, etc...

Go see them.

No seriously, fuck Keane, fuck the Zutons, see these kids. Bring a stapler to re-attach your ass after they rock it off, spooky style.

Earlier this week they played a few tracks from their album on the local sports talk station here in Dallas (the producer of the afternoon show is in a band, so they frequently discuss music), and it now looks like they're going to have The Redwalls up in the studio on Monday afternoon before their show.

I must say, I was blown away by the tracks they played...and so were the guys on the sports talk show. Good buzz being generated for them here. The show is from 3-7 p.m. central, and here's the link to live streaming audio:

Once I get more specifics on what time they'll be on, I'll be sure to post it here.

That album kicks ass. The best free album I've ever received...I think.

Phil,

what's the website where you can listen to all the tracks?
