Dead Confederate: Free Download Preview of New Album, Tour

A JAMBASE FAVE RETURNS WITH NEW ALBUM IN AUGUST

Dead Confederate will return with their sophomore album, Sugar, on August 24th via TAO Recordings/Old Flame. Sugar was recorded by John Agnello (The Hold Steady, Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr.) and as Dead Confederate’s Hardy Morris (guitar/lead vocals) explains, “We’re a loud, big-sounding band, and wanted the album to be fun and creative – instead of just recording the songs. It’s not like we decided we couldn’t have anything grungy or heavy; that’s just not all that we’re interested in. You can listen to the record a bunch of different ways. What we were doing felt right.”

In support of Sugar‘s release, Dead Confederate will be hitting the road, including dates with Deer Tick and a Bumbershoot after party with Surfer Blood.
More fall dates to be announced very soon.

Tiger Woods Loses Cool During 2010 Masters: “You Suck!”

CBS mics picked up a frustrated Tiger Woods saying things he’d probably prefer we didn’t hear during The Masters in Augusta on Saturday. The womanizing sportsman finished fourth in the coveted tournament on Sunday.

Phil Mickelson Wins Masters 2010; Tiger Woods Finishes Fourth

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Tiger Woods, the world’s top-ranked golfer, has been left crestfallen after being beaten in his comeback by crowd favorite Phil Mickelson. Mickelson won his third green jacket at the Masters in Augusta on Sunday, with a thrilling final-round 67 to win by three shots [...]

Schumpeter: Brand rehab

A surprising number of companies spend some time in the clinic

THE venerable Augusta National Golf Club has been playing host to the Masters Tournament since 1934. But this year it is also playing host to another great drama, the relaunching of the most valuable personal brand in the world. Tiger Woods’s penchant for cocktail waitresses and porn actresses ended up costing an astonishing amount of money: two economists at the University of California, Davis, have calculated that his biggest corporate sponsors, such as Nike and Gatorade, saw as much as $12 billion wiped off the value of their shares in the wake of the scandal. But Mr Woods’s warm reception at Augusta suggests that he is well on his way to recovering his star power.

Brand Tiger is thus likely to join a long list of brands that have come back refreshed after a spell in rehab. These include not just the predictable roster of celebrity brands such as Martha Stewart and Kobe Bryant, but also a surprising number of solid corporate citizens such as Johnson & Johnson and Coca-Cola. Brand-threatening scandals are becoming a regular feature of the corporate landscape, thanks to a toxic mixture of globalisation, which scatters corporate activities hither and yon, and the internet, which allows bad news to spread like wildfire. Oxford Metrica, a consultancy, estimates that executives have an 82% chance of facing a corporate disaster within any five-year period, up from 20% two decades ago. Indeed, just the day after Mr Woods made his return to golf, the American government fined Toyota over $16m for its tardiness in addressing safety concerns. …

Drive-By Truckers Tour Free MP3 & Album Details

DRIVE-BY TRUCKERS ANNOUNCE NEW TOUR DATES IN SUPPORT OF

THE BIG TO-DO DUE OUT MARCH 16 / FREE MP3 AVAILABLE

Drive-By Truckers

The Drive-By Truckers announce the first part of The Big To-Do tour, screenings of their documentary, The Secret To A Happy Ending, unveil the album cover for The Big To-Do and offer free MP3.

The Big To-Do is slated for release on March 16, 2010 on ATO Records. Leading up to the release the band will play some weekend runs before kicking off The Big To-Do tour with a two night stand in Atlanta and then heading to SXSW. More dates to be announced in the coming weeks.

DBT and ATO Records are offering up the first single, “This Fucking Job,” from The Big To-Do for free: download.atorecords.com/dbt/this_fucking_job.mp3

The premiere screening of the DBT documentary, The Secret To A Happy Ending, is scheduled for February 5, 2010 at AFI Silver Theatre in Silver Spring, MD. This is a film about the redemptive power of rock & roll; it’s about the American South, where rock was born; it’s about a band straddling the borders of rock, punk and country; it’s about making art, making love and making a living; it’s about the Drive-By Truckers. Director Barr Weissman, Patterson Hood, Mike Cooley and Brad Morgan will be on hand for a Q&A after the screening.

This is the seventh DBT album that has featured original artwork by Wes Freed. The band has a very special relationship with Wes, they never tell him what to draw and often give him no input at all, yet he always seems to find some subtext, often one they didn’t know was there, that he brings out and runs with. That relationship has hit a new level on this album, as he basically illustrated every song. He honed in on the circus allusions of The Rock Show and how it all could be tied together in The Big To-Do. Look for more pieces to be unveiled in the weeks prior to release date.
