Yesterday it was J. Tillman, today it’s A.A. Bondy - it’s a boom time for great singer-songwriters known simply by their initials. Fat Possum Records, who last year re-released Bondy’s stunning 2007 debut American Hearts (one of my faves), will release When The Devil’s Loose on September 1. The press release says that many of Bondy’s typically stripped-down folk songs will feature a full band sound this time around. You can check out the new songs “Oh The Vampyre” and “Mightiest of Guns” over at the Daytrotter sesson he cut last year, or hear the title track streaming at his myspace. I know I say this with some degree of regularity, but I’m really looking forward to this one.
