Our new Whisperado<\/a> EP, Some Other Place,<\/i><\/a> has received a couple of really nice mentions in the blogosphere. [Is that still what it’s called? The blogosphere? I often find myself fallen several days, weeks even, behind the times in virtual circles. Must be all the time I spend reading those old-fashioned “books.”]<\/p>\n

\n“The musicianship is excellent and varied and the songwriting solid. It doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t waste time with homage to the American roots music tradition. It just goes about adding to it. ‘Some Other Place’ is the kind of song Greg Brown might write if he weren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t annoying as shit.” – Jim Henley (Read the whole review here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

[Note: opinions expressed are those of the writer quoted, not of Bagel & Rat. We think Greg Brown has a great voice, and we like his song “Your Town Now,” but, as we don’t know his music very well otherwise, we have no opinion or knowledge of his qualities, annoying or pleasant.]<\/p>\n

\n“I could mention here, again, that it rocks. Or that the song “Black and Blue” works equally well whether or not you take the ass-kicking metaphorically. Or that if I were writing a story and wanted a great name and location for an indie-rock record label, I only wish I could come up with something as good as ‘Bagel & Rat Records’ on Flatbush Avenue.<\/p>\n

“But I’ll skip all that and just tell you to get yourself a copy and hear for yourself.” – Slacktivist<\/a><\/p>\n
