Thanks from TS
I wanted to pass the following note along to those who made it out to the Twilight Singers shows last weekend.
“Just want to say a big thanks to all the folks that came out to see us play
last week, they really made us feel loved. We debuted a number of songs off
the new album, but we threw in some of our favorites from the first CD too.
The band is really excited about the upcoming tour, we’ll be making a lot of
stops throughout this great land before we head overseas in the new year.
Stay tuned to the TS site for tour dates, etc.”

Billboard Article
Billboard.com has an article on the new album.
“It is pretty diverse,” says Dulli. “There is some rock on there. The album begins with a waltz and ends with a waltz. And in between, it is f**kin’ ‘Revolver’.”
Twilight Singers Squeeze ‘Blackberry’
Nearly two-and-a-half years into his post-Afghan Whigs career, singer/songwriter Greg Dulli tells Billboard.com that working under the moniker of the Twilight Singers offers the perfect blend of freedom within a band mindset. The act will release its second album, “Blackberry Belle,” Oct. 14 via Birdman/One Little Indian.
