Product DescriptionOn July 20, 2010 One Little Indian Records will release Dan Sartain Lives,
the latest album from Alabama's Magic City-based lo-fi rockabilly troubadour
Dan Sartain. Lives was produced by Grammy Award winner Liam Watson
(The White Stripes, ex-Stranglers Hugh Cornwell) and is the long awaited
follow-up to the 2006 full length Join Dan Sartain.
Birmingham, AL based Dan Sartain self-released a couple of long-players
before his full debut; 2003's Dan Sartain vs. the Serpientes, released on
Rocket From The Crypt/Hot Snakes frontman John 'Speedo' Reis' Swami
label. The album was championed by journalists at NME, MOJO, Rolling Stone and GQ, among many others. The follow-up, Join Dan Sartain, continued the winning theme. Partly recorded at Liam Watson's London analog ToeRag studio, the album was a more diverse affair featuring occasional forays into lounge and mariachi -- but all
delivered with trademark breathless abandon. Two singles, 'Replacement Man' and 'The Flight of the Finch,' from the album broke into
the Top 20 U.K. independent charts that year. The momentum continued in 2007 when Sartain toured with The White Stripes and also opened for Swedish garage rockers The Hives. Sartain released several singles in late 2009, one of which 'Bohemian Groove' was released on Third Man Records as a curtain-raiser to the soon-to-be released album, Dan Sartain Lives.
