Album Notes

March toward Depression in grand company.
Tijuana Hercules’s The Almanack of Bad Luck makes the Book of Job look like a cakewalk.

Wallow in your sorrow with this Americana junkyard orchestra of wandering gypsies.
A brass band, wah-wah diddley bow, electric washboard, Jew’s harp, and kettle drums surround the nightmare observations of multi-instrumentalist/singer/composer John Vernon Forbes.

This beautifully gloomy new release is Tijuana Hercules’s 2nd full-length album, after several EP’s, compilations, and a 45.

The Almanack of Bad Luck: Despair never sounded so good.
