Life Of Regret captures the roots-deep unvarnished sound of Kelly Kessler and the Wichita Shut Ins featuring Lawrence Peters. Combine Kessler’s “unique, touching voice and old-timey meets avant-garde sensibility” with Peters’ honeyed country baritone and his obsession with classic honkytonk, and you get a fresh take on what matters about country music.
Add in players you know from Pinetop Seven, Slaid Cleaves, Robbie Fulks, and Edith Frost, and this EP pops right up to meet you.
"Rare are the bands that can make a good song and play really well and it's obvious that your playing skills are better than most of the bands on nowadays scene. Also, rare are the bands that can play with styles like you. I'm glad that still there are creative bands out there who are not trying to sound like hundreds of bands around. Using brain in nowadays music is very rare so that's why I'm glad I can play your music." - Aleksandar Lazarevic, DJ
