ATWS Podcast #60: JP Harris & the Tough Choices

JP Harris from JP Harris and the Tough Choices makes country music…period. Their new album I’ll Keep Calling (Cow Island Records) is filled with songs about whiskey and women, honky tonkin’ good times, unfortunate tattoos, and of course, love gone bad. He’s had quite a life and I was lucky enough to get a chance to talk with him about it here in Lancaster, PA a couple weeks ago during a stop on their extensive spring and summer tour in support of the new album.
We recently partnered with our friends at Tri State Indie to bring you a new Wood Stove House Artist Spotlight series. We’ll be periodically posting 5 to 10 minute podcast episodes on Tri State’s website highlighting some of our favorite independent music from around the country. Tri State Indie is your online source for independent music news covering local, regional, and national acts every day, and live at over 40 festivals a year.
The Kalob Griffin Band, otherwise known as KGB performed a rockin’ set on the World Cafe Live stage for the 2012 Tri State Indie Music Awards back in February. That night they also walked as the Best Philly Indie Band of the year. On June 1st KGB returns to the World Cafe Live stage this time to celebrate the release of their brand new album June Found a Gun. Tickets are on sale now.

We’re delighted to welcome our friends from Indian Summer Jars back to Lancaster for a Wood Stove House concert.
