Based in Raliegh, NC - yes PHS are a southern rock band. But
they are also SO MUCH more. Lyrical content, an appreciation of melody - and
the ability to rock rarely come together like this. Their latest full length
album was - Too Crowded on the Losing End. Look for three cool "limited edition"EP's - the first of which was, Fugitive Glue. It features
"Evolution Blues", "Life Is Mostly Waiting", "Safe And
Sound", "Mr. Soul" (yes, a cover of the Buffalo Springfield,
Neil Young penned classic), and a live version of "New Orleans
Cocaine Blues (aka Experienced Bar Band Seeks Situation)". The second, Coma La Grava is available now via the bands' website and via Miles Of Music. It, and most of their back catalog - will be officially released digitally soon. The third will follow later this Spring. These EP's will
be available widely digitally but only available physically via the bands'
website and at their shows. Look for the re-issue of their first album Beestinger
Lullabies, and a lotta touring in '08 - oh yeah, and an amazing new
album. They recently performed during the South By Southwest Music & Media Conference in Austin, TX in March. Slowly turning the volume UP. Please visit their website (double click their picture) or better yet, their
myspace page for more info.
