(Seriously) how have I not posted anything from the forthcoming Lucero album? For real? I love Lucero and I’ve been listening to this one so much it seems like it’s already been out awhile. The lowdown is that the album is called Rebels, Rogues, & Sworn Brothers and it will be released on September 26th. But…
Pre-order the album from Lucero’s website and not only will you get the CD shipped to you one week prior to the street date, you will get an immediate digital download of the album and a limited-edition 3 pin set. What more could you ask for?
Anyway, I’ve written about Lucero briefly before and certainly mentioned how incredibly great this band is live. What could be better than a little southern-countrified-punk rock? And where their last album Nobody’s Darlings was a more stripped-down guitar-based record, Rebels, Rogues, & Sworn Brothers finds them incorporating more piano, organ, and keys into the mix. The music is still trademark Lucero (though) with songs about love, loss, and drinking. Get it now.
Oh yeah, Lucero is also on tour with Rocky Votolato and William Elliot Whitmore opening. See you at Metro.

Lucero is a fairly new discovery for me and SO GOOD. They are coming through town I think next month but I didn’yout know with whom. I am hoping Rocky Votolato and that William Eliot guy because I like the former and have heard good things about the latter. But wait, isn’t Rocky Votolato like WAAAY to chill and pretty to open for Lucero?
didn’yout = didn’t, in non-typo land
no, no! rocky will be a PERFECT opener for lucero! they both have those rough, scratchy voices. lucero has some chill and pretty songs too…TRUST ME!
“1979″ rules.
Lucero is one of my favorite bands. I love the new album and hate Rocky Votolato.
