Hello friends.
In this edition of Austin Hollow news, it's CD release day for our new split single "Sweet Tea/ Anita." The first song, “Sweet Tea” is a foot stomping quick little swampy rocker of a tune. Now, if Sweet Tea somehow doesn't work you into a frenzy, the second track “Anita” surely will. Anita is also an upbeat, bluegrassy influenced tune that features the hot fiddle playing of our good friend, the talented Mr. Mike Kedley. We are excited about sharing these new songs so go to your favorite streaming platforms and check them out, save and share the rock. As a special thanks for your support, a free download link is below for each song to add to your personal library. Enjoy the stuff.

Our second big announcement is that the long awaited full length album “The Fisherman” will soon be available, streaming everywhere on Tuesday October 16th. If you've enjoyed the advance singles over the last few months, you won't be disappointed with this record. We are proud of The Fisherman and we can't wait to finally share the full release with our friends and new fans out there. More info soon.
Finally, as many of you folks may know, all of us in AH are big fans of Jason Isbell. His songwriting and live performances continue to be an inspiration to Austin Hollow. A few years ago, we prepared a special live performance featuring a tribute of songs by Jason Isbell, unfortunately, the Covid lockdown came and cancelled the show. We are pleased to announce that the tribute show has been rescheduled for Saturday October 21st, at 8pm, at Three Heads Brewing here in Rochester, N.Y. Come on out and join us for a set of Austin Hollow favorites, followed by a rousing set of classic and new music by Jason Isbell. AH will be joined by special musical guests to help us out, so it should be an interesting, entertaining and memorable show. Below is a show link for more info.
