Lone Official's new record, Tuckassee Take, was released in Europe on Monday July 17th, 2006 by Honest Jon's Records, a label co-owned by Gorillaz' Damon Albarn. Astralwerks has set a US release for January 2007.

The record was produced and engineered by Mark Nevers at Beech House in Nashville, TN. Mark has previously worked on recordings by Will Oldham, Silver Jews, Candi Staton and Lambchop. The band is excited about hitting the road, here and abroad, as soon as possible.

When Matt Button moved from Louisville, Ky to Nashville, Tn he landed a job at local favorite hang out spot Springwater tending the bar. He brought with him a handful of songs he had been working on during his years of playing drums in Kentucky. It wasn't long before he played them for Nashville audiences on the Springwater stage. True the Springwater's not the best place to play acoustic by yourself, but amidst the pool games and bar fights a few listeners took note. Soon Ben Martin, an in demand local musician who's played with Lambchop and Justin Earle, set up his drums and began backing Matt up. Other musicians joined up including Sami Elamri and Brian Nichols from the band Trophy, and Ryan Norris and Eric Williams from the group Character. Lone Official was born.

The moon is 4.5 billion years old. The average American lives 78 years and the average worker bee about 35 days. Wacky. See this awkward place from space in our new video for new song "Erased":
