It’s Record Store Day, and there’s a lost Wormburner B-side included on a Record Store Day compilation CD available at record shops throughout New England. For those of you not in New England, pick up the song for just 99 cents in the at iTunes Music Store. Or just stream it below via Spotify. It’s an alternate version of “Jersey Central Power and Light”, which has been a staple of Wormburner live shows in recent years.

We’ve been holed up in the studio putting the finishing touches on our third full-length record, due for release later this year. Follow the progress on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

What a year! 2013 was one of our greatest to-date. We got to play New York shows with some of our heroes including Violent Femmes, Old 97s , and Bill Janovitz (of Buffalo Tom). We toured the mid-Atlantic states and released a new 7-inch single featuring a guest appearance by Sean Eden of LUNA. And the year ended with a huge outpouring at a SOLD OUT Mercury Lounge.

We’re gonna hole up in the studio now and finish recording our third LP. The 2014 release-date is TBD. Many thanks to our friends and fans for all the support. Keep checking back for updates on the recording process and upcoming shows.

Next up is our annual Christmas show at Mercury Lounge, featuring a headlining set by Wormburner followed the original Yule Dogs closing out the night with a set of holiday sing-alongs. East River Bandits and of course Lifeguard Nights are on the bill as well. As always, special guests will abound! It all happens Thursday December 19th. Get your tickets in advance. This show will sell out.

On Thursday November 14th, we will open for Violent Femmes at Roseland Ballroom in New York City. This is the Femmes’ only area appearance, and it’s a make-up date for the Central Park show that was canceled in September due to rain and flooding.

Last week’s mid-Atlantic tour dates included an hourlong live-in-the-studio visit to the college radio station at Duke University. Video footage from session captured these acoustic versions of our new songs “Parliaments on Sundays” and “Today Might Be Our Day“.

The B-side exclusive (titled “Parliaments on Sundays”) boasts a guest-appearance by Luna’s inimitable Sean Eden on guitar. You can preview and order the record right here.
