I feel real bad about this. All three of these bands have been in the disc changer for two weeks. I've been intending to write about them but time just slipped by. Here we are now, on the eve of me leaving and I still haven't written a single word...So let it be known, all three of these bands deserve far more attention than they are about to get.
The Scissormen
The Scissormen come out of Nashville and featuring a fella on slide-guitar, Ted Drozdowski, that just plain kills it. As much rock and roll as they are blues they are exactly what I wanna hear from a band when I walk into a foreign bar.
The Scissormen have 2 albums available, 2005's Jinx Breaker (produced by Billy Conway of Morphine) and 2007's When The Devil Calls. They will be performing at The Deep Blues Festival on Sunday night as well as a collection of shows around the St. Paul area before and after their set.

Too bad they aren't playing any club shows this weekend.
