Latest Disgrace describes Lily and the Tigers’ “The Hand You Deal Yourself” as “a haunting backwoods number that smells of pine and dust.”

Walking your own path and living with the consequences is a bread and butter theme for many folk artists, the sort of introspective, self-evaluative topic that begs for skeletal songs rooted in existential examination. In the case of “The Hand You Deal Yourself,” the title track from Lily and the Tigers’ upcoming third album, we’re confronted with a haunting backwoods number that smells of pine and dust and takes a few moments to crackle laconically to life like a tiny spark of hope trying to set fire to a lifetime of waterlogged dreams. Vocalist Casey Hood has the perfect voice for spilling her guts—rich, expressive and quietly confident—and here she unpacks her parcels of wisdom with a croon that’s both beautiful and weather-beaten. It’s a stirring effort, a raw testament to the power of simplicity and elegant restraint. READ MORE

Santa Cruz Arts Blog on The Wild: “Folk music for the post-punk generations.”

The word ‘folk’ means a lot of different things, depending on your age and experience. For American hipsters listening to the folk/Americana of The Lumineers, Of Monsters and Men and Mumford’s various offspring, it’s a return to an older aesthetic and way of doing things. For the older generation, it is a celebration of the great things that have come before.

For the members of The Wild, it is an archetype to fit themselves into. They are a continuation, a generation removed, from what has been a progressive lineage. Woodie Guthrie sang the newspaper, Bob Dylan sang as if he were a character in the story, followed by Springsteen etc. This is key to The Wild’s sound, because they aren’t retro revivalists; they are folk music for the post-punk generations. When I spoke to Witt (vocals/guitars) after the show, that is exactly what he explained to me. READ MORE

American Songwriter premieres Lily and the Tigers’ “The Hand You Deal Yourself”

Sometime last summer, Lily and the Tigers decided to record their third studio album. They chose a studio far outside of town, gassed up the car, and packed it full of instruments… then threw in some tents and camping gear, too.

For a week, the band tracked songs in a Vermont studio during the day and camped under the stars at night. It was cheaper than renting a hotel, but for a band that specializes in ramshackle, flea-bitten folk songs, it was also a stylistic move. The Hand You Deal Yourself is the product of that week spent in the New England wilderness. It’s a raw, ragged campfire album, full of guitars that twang and drums that clang. On the title track, you can almost hear the summer wind whistle through the maple trees. READ MORE

American Songwriter premieres Party Dolls’ “Vampire”

The Song: “Vampire,” a languid, introspective ballad off the upcoming LP Love Wars Baby.
The Artist: Party Dolls
Who’s That: A semi-obscure supergroup combining like-minded members of The District Attorneys, Tedo Stone, Moths, Ruby the Rabbitfoot and the Archers of Loaf side project Crooked Fingers.
Sounds Like: Driving in the rain with the radio cranked up.
Fun Fact: The band got together last year when only half of The District Attorneys were available to play a Valentine’s Day gig in Athens, Georgia. Love Wars Baby, featuring a bevy of therapeutic post-breakup songs, drops on Valentine’s Day this year. Feel the love.
Songwriter says: “‘Vampire’ was an attempt to write a Valentine’s day song and not feeling up to the challenge,” admits Party Dolls’ Drew Beskin. “It was literally written while staring out of a window. I had to call it ‘Vampire’, I wouldn’t be able to forgive myself if I called it ‘Out My Window’.”
