Ten Shekel Shirt set to release new CD "Jubilee"

Ten Shekel Shirt has recently signed a deal with Rounder Records and will be releasing a new full length CD on August 19th, 2008 ...



The band, headed by Lamont Hiebert, is known for songs like:

Ocean
Sing For Joy
Great
Meet With Me
Risk

and more. Jubilee is the band's first release since 2003's Risk.

From the press release:

“For me, rock, faith and justice are all meant to go together. I had to make this record. The thoughts and emotions I’ve encountered over the past few years had to come out.” While re-forming Ten Shekel Shirt, Lamont enlisted one the most talented players on the New Haven music scene, lead guitarist Jonny Rodgers who also co-wrote five of the tracks on Jubilee. Jonny’s melodic movements range from semi-clean and simple to quirky and intricate propelling the music forward with creativity. Hiebert says, “The great thing about Jonny Rodgers is that all the locals in New Haven talk about his unique style. The word on the street here is that he plays like…Jonny Rodgers.”
