The tow-haired crooner from Memphis never had this much fun without a fried peanut-butter & bacon in one hand, and a revolver in the other! Jet Black Blonde believe in having a good time, and you'll be doggone if you can't HEAR it in this podcast. It really comes through! Best of all, while they did tracks from their current release, Follow Blind, they made a point to share tracks from their upcoming, as of yet untitled full-length.
