The Generationals



The Generationals are the collaboration of Grant Widmer and Ted Joyner. The group was formed in 2008 when the two returned to New Orleans following the break of their previous band "Eames Era". They are currently on Park the Van records label with a couple other good bands, including Dr. Dog (the group I posted on last week). Their debut album "Con Air" is an instant classic; rock solid...actually better than rock solid the whole way through. Each song is indie pop at its finest. And guess what?? Its your lucky day because you can stream the whole damn thing right here....

Live the Generationals may include as many as seven pieces (including background singers, trumpet, guitars, keyboard, bass, and drums). They are touring very heavily right now and chances are if you take a look at their schedule they will be in a city near you in the coming months.

Enjoy, Ben
