At this point in the lifetime of And The Relatives if you haven’t played “Cowboy Jazz” to death, you’re probably not going to. Personally, I’ve attempted to run that song into the ground and it just will not stop being enjoyable to listen to. This, if you did not pick up on it, is a total compliment. That being said, the bands cover of The Ledge from Fleetwood Mac is the perfect summer jam replacement.

The point here is this, the Lake Fever Session from And The Relatives contains both “Cowboy Jazz” and “The Ledge” – a perfect combination to introduce a new listener to the band or to satisfy an established listener with some quality goods.

• Cowboy Jazz
• The Ledge (Fleetwood Mac – feat. The Garland Sisters)

In case you didn’t know it, this weekend was the 65th anniversary of the Normandy invasion – aka D-Day. It was also, perhaps more importantly to the content of this site, the official release date for the fourth installment of the How I Became the Bomb digital EP series. Through Adversity To The Stars can be downloaded over on the bands website for the price of one valid email address (preferably yours).

The three tracks; “Atlas”, “Harvest” and “Gay Guy” finish out the first series of free downloadable EP’s and the band plans on releasing their first compendium of tracks in a physical form (likely CD and vinyl). Look for that in the late summer / early fall but in the meantime – go get your download on.
