Just mistaken at a gas station for a blues band playing the North Mississippi Hill Country Blues Festival. Lady wouldn’t give in to any information request, she thought Trae was joking. Trae wishes we were playing a show with all of the Burnside family!!! Much love lady! But we wasn’t fooling you, honest! Sick lineup: http://tumblr.com/x6hc47tne See you soon Memphis!!! HiTone...
Steel Train / Tegan & Sara / ...and see you this... →
Trae LOVES Steel Train. Greg LOOOOOOOVES Tegan & Sara. This is a rad song and a rad cover. It’s going to be a rad album too. Enjoy these two gems at Stereogum! Greg says come say hello to him at the Paramore/Tegan & Sara show in ATL, he wants to sing along as loud as possible right next to all of you! :)
See ya’ll this weekend in Memphis, Oxford, and Birmingham this...

We hope you’ll continue to do the same for us and for other bands and that music will continue to...
