You already know I'll be playing the Grit Diaries songwriter showcase tomorrow night, Wednesday the 9th, at Speakeasy Carrboro. And you know I'll be on the Pass the Hat radio show on WHUP-FM Hillsborough at 6 p.m. on Friday the 25th. 

But since we last talked I've got a new show to tell you about:

It's a rock 'n' roll kinda show with The Twits and General Vicinity. The latter band's rhythm section played with me when I went electric at my record-release show in May.

Come on out Tuesday July 22 at 9 p.m. $10 suggested cover.

You can always find the details of my upcoming shows on my website's Shows page.

What they're saying about the EP

I thought I'd mentioned this in a previous newsletter but my EP, Us Ugly Guys Got Style — which you can stream and buy at Bandcamp — is getting some nice reviews. 

"I can’t recommend this EP enough," says Blank Tapes, a North Carolina music blog. Read the whole review here.

"Highly enjoyable and well worth your time and money," says Power Pop News. Read the whole review here.

"Very worthwhile," says Add to Wantlist. Read the whole review here.

"You quickly get the sense that The King Teen is some serious kind of lovable loser," says Poprock Record. Read the whole review here.

You can always find press coverage on the Reviews page of TheKingTeen.com. 

Here's a last reminder about my upcoming shows. 

Thanks for reading, listening and coming on out.

Your friend,

The King Teen
