Ben Nichols joins American Aquarium & Red Collar at White Water!
We’re super excited to announce SLOBBERBONE live at the White Water Tavern on Tuesday August 11, 2009!! Tickets are $12 and limited to 150 so expect this to sell out. We will have them available online at www.lastchancemusic.com and locally at the White Water beginning Friday July 03.
Brent Best is one of the best songwriters out there, period. Add Jess Barr, Tony Harper, & Brian Lane to the mix and you get face melting rock & twang from one of the best bands to ever come out of the Lone Star State!
Slobberbone live in Little Rock!
Join American Aquarium & Last Chance Records this Saturday night at the White Water Tavern for the Little Rock release of “Dances For the Lonely“! Last Chance signed a multi-album deal with BJ, Bill, Chris, Ryan, and Zack last summer (at the White Water!) and their new album produced by Chris Stamey is the fruit of our collaboration. Come help us celebrate!
Hailing from Raleigh, NC, American Aquarium have toured relentlessly to build up a solid following nationwide. Little Rock is their 2nd home and this is guaranteed to be a great show. Glossary frontman Joey Kneiser does a rare acoustic set to open. Get there early as this one may sell out.

This weekend our friends Kevin Kerby & Battery play a release show for “Beautiful and Bright” their new album on Max Recordings. $10 gets you in the door of the White Water Tavern and a copy of the CD. Last Chance Records artist Jonathan Wilkins opens the show with Will Boyd (American Princes) on drums and Matt Floyd (Smoke Up Johnny) on bass.
Last Chance Records will be issuing a limited vinyl pressing of “Beautiful and Bright” in the fall. Special thanks to Burt Taggart of Max Recordings and Kevin Kerby for working with us on this project.
We received the sleeves for the new John Paul Keith and the One Four Fives “Knoxville Town” b/ “Memphis Girls” today and they look great. Check ‘em out! This is the first in a planned series of singles JPK will released on Last Chance Records. Waiting on the test pressings now so hopefully these will be out in July.
