Horrible Crows Debut in September

“Ian and I had a ritual where we’d go to the back on the bus at the end of a show and play each other records, I got him into Afghan Whigs and he got me into PJ Harvey and one day we just thought, ‘we should do something like this.”

I could not be more excited about the new project from Gaslight Anthem’s Brian Fallon.

Recent Twilight Singers Tour Press/Radio

Dulli fulfilled my expectations and then some. His obviously renewed health saw him in high spirits and top form; the set moved through an hour and a half without a single hiccup and with wonderful little improv moments and surprises here and there

Review of the LA show: Chud.com

“Mellowing out is relative,” he says over the phone from his home in Los Angeles. “I’m still me. I’m just an evolved version of me.” … “There are a couple of smokers on this new record,” he says. “A few songs that are much harder than anything the Whigs ever did.” … “With the Whigs, it was entirely possible that my spleen left my body,” Dulli says. “I’m really not sure where my spleen is.”

Dulli sparks Twilight Singers with some ‘Dynamite’

“There are some folks asking me when I’m going to do a solo record and I’m probably closer to that then I’ve ever been. But I don’t know. I just love to make records. And I love to make different kinds of records and have a different experience making them. But if I am going to make a record with just my name on it, standing here in the airport I’m trying to imagine what it would sound like, and I don’t know. And that really is the exciting part of making art. Not knowing what’s coming next.”
