Hello from Trophy Wives to you...

Just updating this here thing with...uh, a few updates, if you will.

First and foremost, it gives us no pleasure whatsoever to formally announce that Elliott Turton, bro extraordinaire, conossieur of snacks, guitarist extreme, and all around hilarious guy is no longer a member of Trophy Wives. We wish him all the best with his forthcoming baby, which has a street date of June 2012, and with all of his other endeavors, including WAXEATER, for whom he still plays the aluminum bass.

Secondly, we wish to announce that recording for our second LP is currently underway. All of the drums and bass have been laid the fuck down, and it sounds incredible as expected. Tom Curtis, who produced and engineered Old Scratch, is once again at the helm. It will be released in the latter part of 2012 on Latest Flame Records. The title is still up in the air at this time. We'd really, really fucking love to call it When You Ride With the Devil..., but our attorney advised us that POLICE TEETH holds all rights to the term "devil," and that serious and merciless legal action could ensue should we ignore his warning.

Thirdly, the Wives will be making our maiden voyage to SXSW this March. We will be playing a couple of shows on the way. In fact, here are all of our upcoming shows, some of which are with our ultra fine labelmates Police Teeth (see you in court) and VICTORY AND ASSOCIATES:

February 27: Louisville, KY @ Baxter's 
March 2: Louisville, KY @ Louisville Science Center 
March 13: Memphis, TN @ The Hi-Tone w/ Old Coldbloods, TBA 
March 15: Denton, TX @ Rubber Gloves w/ Victory and Associates, Terminator 2 
March 16: Austin, TX @ Sidebar (Latest Flame SXSW showcase) w/ Victory and Associates, Nervous Curtains, the Blind Shake, System and Station 
March 31: Louisville, KY @ Mag Bar w/ Police Teeth, WNBA 
April 1: Indianapolis, IN @ Vibes Music w/ Police Teeth, Male Bondage 


Well, that's all for now. Thanks for everything. See you in 2012....


<3,
