B.W.'s PLAYLIST/ KHSU, 90.5/ SAT., 31 JULY 2010


The extraordinary New Mexico-based band A Hawk And A Hacksaw, led by former Neutral Milk Hotel drummer/percussionist/accordion player Jeremy Barnes and violinist Heather Trost, should be coming out with a new release - hopefully soon. Their last full-length release was the superb 2008 Delivrance.
