New Jersey native PJ Bond - backed by a full band this time around - has embarked on a two-week tour of the East Coast support of his lastest full-length, "You Didn't Know I Was Alphabetical." The full-length was released in late 2009 by Black Numbers in LP and CD format. Bond will be joined by label mates Over Stars And Gutters for eight of those shows, including Rad Fest in Wilmington, NC.
The ex-Outsmarting Simon front man has played in bands such as The Color Fred, Marigold and Communipaw, but in comparison to previous endeavors, "Alphabetical" is a decidedly more organic, homespun affair. It's a heartfelt slice of creaky, back porch Americana tossed against a perfectly catchy pop backdrop. Still, Bond throws a little bit of everything into the mix, from rustic, up tempo alt-country rockers to haunting, melancholy acoustic offerings and sweetly infectious indie numbers.
