Walt McClements Talks About Going Solo In Lonesome Leash With NOLA.com!

"“I Am No Captain” features some of what have become his trademarks: melancholy swirls of accordion and old-world brass infused, at times, with a sense of cabaret drama, e.g., Jacques Brel or Scott Walker. As a solo artist, McClements’ lyrics also seem to have grown if not confessional, then at least more intimate, speaking often in the first person." Read the interview now over on NOLA.com!

Brooklyn Vegan Announces Lonesome Leash's Tour & Premieres His New Track "Feeding Frenzy!"

"Lonesome Leash (aka Walt McClements, a touring member and collaborator of Dark Dark Dark, and also a member of punk orchestra Why Are We Building Such a Big Ship? and New Orleans' Panorama Jazz Band) is releasing his debut album, I am No Captain, on January 1. It's a freaky, folky album that should appeal to people who like their Decemberists/Mountain Goats cut with a little Gypsy flavor." Listen now on Brooklyn Vegan.
