New tracks, new site, etc…

Two new tracks (“The Unfazed” & “Hard Working Dogs“) from our upcoming Dolorean release The Unfazed are sitting smack dab in the side bar of our new website right over there ———————->

The record will be out this Fall.  Partisan Records (home to Deer Tick, Holy Sons, Mountain Man and JBM) will birth this baby stateside and the ever-growing Fargo Records will handle things in Europe.  Touring in support of the album is inevitable and dates will be posted as they’re booked.  A simple sign up to our mailing list will score you a download of the title track and we’ll work on getting this relationship back on more sure footing with frequent, but tasteful updates of our tours, releases, and merchandise for sale.

Please feel free to leave some comments.  Let us know what you’re thinking about these new songs.

    New songs are dope Al! Very pumped to hear you and the boys are touring. Hope you can make it back through Pullman, WA again. Your solo show at Birds on a Wire was one my highlights of the fest! Is Barton playing with you on tour or the album?

  2. Murielle says:

    Love, love, love the new songs. Beautiful. Looking forward to the release!

  3. Pete (UK) says:

    The new songs are great and the band sounds like it’s flexing more muscle this time. I think this one will take Dolorean’s following to a new level. Looking forward to the release and seeing you play live once again.

  4. Gordon Higgins says:

    Yeah I agree with Pete sounds more like an album written with band in mind.
    Great songs!

  5. Kate says:

    Wonderful as always!

  7. Kirk Anderson says:

    New stuff sounds excellent. Bought my tix for the show at Mississippi in PDX. Can’t wait…

  8. Jeff Vidal says:

    Sounds Great!

  9. David O'Neill says:

    Hey Al,

    I love the new songs and website is looking good. Look forward to getting hold of the new album and hopefully will see you live again over here in the UK sometime in the future. All the best.

  10. Chris says:

    Fantastic! Can’t wait to hear the rest of the album. Hope to see you in Seattle again sometime soon.

  11. Morry says:

    so damned good, really good. can’t wait to hear it live in SF.

  12. Barb says:

    Super excited for the new record!

    To those wondering about touring and playing your city… We’ll certainly be out playing shows in support of this record across the West, in the UK and Europe and hopefully, eventually we’ll hit all places in between. There will be a vinyl release of “The Unfazed” and it will be available through the site when it’s up for sale. Lastly, Kirk, if you were trying to be funny about the Mississippi Studios show I dig your sense of humor. If not, I think there’s a misunderstanding. Check the spelling of the band for the show you bought tickets for and check the FAQ section of this website for more info… Thanks! Al James

    Hey Al James. Hope all is good with you. Glad to see you are keeping at this music of yours. I have stopped to check what you are up to here and there over the years. Hopefully I will run into you some day in the future. Maybe pop in on a show sometime. I don’t get to see a lot of shows these days (am going to see Merle Haggard though). What is up with all the people that find your band through a Bose headphone display? Reading the listener comments on your I-tunes was cracking me up. Funny little world we live in. I just live, write, school, work some, listen to records and play with my two inherited children. As Joe Walsh would say: “Life’s been good to me so far”. Here’s to you old friend. May are paths cross again.

  15. Kirk Anderson says:

    Ugh. Actually, that would have been a good joke to make and I like to think I would have made that very joke had I not been genuinely confused. Guess I’ll be appealing to the good folks at Mississippi for leniency. I’ll see you at the Woods in June, assuming that is actually you and not a second Al James that is floating about.

  16. Bruce says:

    Super excited for the new record!

  17. Steve says:

    Fantastic! Can’t wait to hear the rest of the album. Hope to see you in Seattle again sometime soon.

  18. heather says:

    I’m hoping to make it to MusicNW starting Sept. 10. If I do, please, please, please play a Portland show in that timeframe (doesn’t have to be part of the fest). If I can’t make the trip, on the other hand, please don’t so I don’t have to miss *another* show of yours. You’ll check with me on that, right?

  19. Myra says:

    I loved your solo-act in Paradiso (Amsterdam) – with Richmond Fontaine. I can’t wait for the new Europe tour to start!! Will definitely be there :)
    For now I will enjoy the new songs!
