TODD SNIDER SOLVES YOUR ECONOMIC WOES WITH 'THE EXCITEMENT PLAN,' NEW ALBUM PRODUCED BY DON WAS, OUT JUNE 9TH ON YEP ROC
He's taken on Conservative Christians, hippies, Republicans, and frat boys. Now "country's conscience" (Spin, August 2006) and "top wiseass" (Blender, August 2006) Todd Snider shows us how to get through this economic crisis with 'The Excitement Plan' (out June 9th on Yep Roc). The album features GRAMMY-winning producer Don Was (Bob Dyan, Rolling Stones, Bonnie Raitt) and a guest appearance by Loretta Lynn.
'The Excitement Plan' is "an old gypsy term" Snider adopted from his father. He explains, "I know right now that times are hard for all of us and that new songs from a folk singer are not at the top of so many grocery lists but these twelve songs are different. These twelve songs can be part of your solution. Just give them a chance. Take them in. Use 'em to help you appreciate your girl if you still got one, and/or your job if you still got one. Trust them, trust me and I promise you as god is my witness sometime here in the next sixty to ninety days we will be layin 'em in the sweet peas."
