From a camping cup on some missing night

Yeah, most of you know this, but the latest album Dents and Shells was released on the Merge label on October 12th. I haven't been able to listen to the entire CD yet, but I've heard two tracks ("Her" and "A Chance Counsel") played often on KCRW and so far I like what I hear. You can pick up the album on CD at good music stores everywhere or directly from Merge Records or download it from iTunes.

The site that richardbuckner.com points to has finally been updated with the release of Dents and Shells.

RB is still on tour promoting the album, so check him out if you can. He also changed booking agents, switching from longtime representation of the Davis McLarty Agency in Austin to Aero Booking in Seattle.

* "From a camping cup on some missing night" is a line from the song "Her."

The Backyard Dusk Info

Disclaimer: This site is completely unofficial. I don't work for Richard Buckner, so please don't send me letters directed to him. I'm just a fan like you. Also, I don't run/maintain any of the above links/lists.

To contact me, you can send e-mail to backyard.dusk (at) gmail (dot com). (This is an updated address, but the old one will still work for now.) More about me (my blogger profile).

For those wondering, the term "the backyard dusk" is from the song "Faithful Shooter" from Buckner's album Since (the song also happens to be the first RB song I ever heard, and the one that got me hooked).
