Change of Mind for Gun Club Member

Online, October 17, 2012 (Newswire.com) - According to Buffalo Jack and The Parlor Snakes' front man Patrick Coleman, Terry Graham has pulled out of the line-up as drummer. He will be replaced by notable session drummer and friend Josh Glidden.

Terry Graham was the drummer for the 80's Los Angeles cult group The Gun Club, which was well known for their alternative blues-punkabilly sound, and featured Jeffrey Lee Peirce on vocals.

"He just stopped all communication with the band (Buffalo Jack and The Parlor Snakes). He made himself unavailable and would not return phone calls or email. And no one has any idea why. He just fell off the earth. But we are very happy to say that we still have Gun Club's lead guitarist Jim Duckworth." says Patrick Coleman.

2012 turns out to be busy year for The Parlor Snakes. Trygve Has-Ellison (slide guitarist and manager for the group) believes the CD will be out to the public at the end of the year. "It should be out by December 2012. Touring is being planned the following summer, starting in San Paulo, Brazil, where the group has a fan base already. But right now, the recordings have been transfered from Easley McCain Studios in Memphis Tennessee, where Doug Easley recorded the album and worked the analog, to Actiondale Studios in D.C. for final mixing. We are still deciding for mastering. The lull of time is due to business technicalities that needed to be resolved, but in the end we will have an excellent product."

Patrick Coleman, AKA Buffalo Jack, AKA PC, of the current alternative country rock group PC and The Angels of Death, helped Trygve Has-Ellison put together Buffalo Jack and The Parlor Snakes last year as a recording project, which has picked up momentum in the underground to date.

The band's line-up is:
Patrick Coleman- vocals
Jim Duckworth- lead guitar (from Gun Club)
Trygve Has-Ellison- slide guitar
Bobby Black- pedal steel (from Commander Cody and Asleep at the Wheel)
Rob Beltz- bass
Josh Glidden- drums
