11/18 - Whiskey Myers - Whiskey Myers' new album 'Early Morning Shakes' (out Feb 4 on Wiggy Thump/Thirty Tigers) is the culmination of years of dedication, experimentation, and refinement for the Tyler, TX-based quintet. Produced by Dave Cobb - whose credits include Jason Isbell's recent album 'Southeastern,' Jamey Johnson, and both Waylon and Shooter Jennings - the result is hard-driving and immediate, steeped in the rich legacy of southern rock that inspires the band while also drawing from R&B, psychedelic rock, and string band traditions.
