A.A. Bondy- Believers

There's plenty of ways to describe the type of music that A.A. Bondy performs; Americana, folk, singer-songwriter, hell maybe even alt-country. All I know is that he's flat out producing some of the best the genre has to offer over the past few years. Bondy's acclaimed 2009 album, When The Devil's Loose was high on our year end top 10 list, and this week he released his follow-up, 'Believers', which he recorded in spring 2011 by Rob Schnapf at Mant/Kingsize Studios in Glassell Park, CA. 

 If you hurry you can grab yourself a free MP3 download of the ominous track "The Surfer King," which premiered as NPR's Song Of The Day http://www.npr.org/2011/09/14/140436143/download-a-a-bondys-cool-menace-in-surfer-king.
