This one’s a doozy… or doozie? Maybe doo-z? Either way, this one is a big deal, not only becasue we think it’s a pretty rad jam, but we’ve got The Offical Tim Cappello playing sax on it. For those Cappello uninitiates, he was Tina Turner’s sax machine back in the day, so that means he was on the Thunderdome soundtrack, which would be bad ass enough, but then he went on to Lost Boys glory with his scene/cover of The Call’s “I Still Believe.” And that’s not the end of it, he’s worked with too many incredible people to list here. And why didn’t we ask him to play on our version of “I Still Believe” for The Cover Up, you may be asking? Well, we didn’t know we could… Until now. We knew we needed a powerhouse sax player for this song, so we just went for it. And he agreed! And we’re so happy that he did, because it’s wonderful, and we hope you think so too. Also, Bandcamp has this pretty cool thing where you can do a listening party of an album, sooo we’re gonna do an Act III party next Friday (which is also a Bandcamp Friday) at 1 pm CST. We’re gonna drop the final song live in the stream so everyone hears it at the same time and can flood the chat with all kinds of reactions nobody will have a chance to read… because… how could you? We might even jump in the chat, too. But basically to participate, we think you just have to have pre-ordered the album and watch for a Bandcamp email/invite to the event. We should have more concrete details by the next mailer/post early next week.
SUPER MAGFEST 2026 Just announced – All 3 nights. All 3 “Act” albums. And we’re doing them in chronological story-order, so Act II on Thursday, Act I on Friday, and Act III on Saturday. This one is gonna rule. It’s pretty much sold out at this point, but don’t freak out if you didn’t get a badge in time, because we’re planning a little something here in Nashville for early-mid 2026 that you don’t want to miss (even if you’re already going to MAGFest). We’ll dole out more info on that as we know more details. But go ahead and clear your schedules for the entire year, because it’s gonna be a big little something.
