Brian will be playing his album, Resurrection, acoustically, in its entirety. He'll be telling stories of the recording process for this record as well.

The Debauchers have brought their no-holds-barred live show to venues throughout the Midwest. As Milwaukee's weekly arts paper, the Shepherd-Express, says: "[The Debauchers are] revisiting an era of punk where ethical meant breaking rules (and a few guitars on stage). With an emphasis on lo-fi and the occasional slide guitar thrown in, the Debauchers throw a lifeline to the half-drowned punk rock scene."

The Handcuffs embody the spirit of rock music's uninhibited, sexy and overbearing appeal. A perfect blend of style and energy. They do not sound like anyone else, but at the same time they seem very familiar. They are influenced by everything good that sells and anything good that doesn't.

Five Foot Nine isn't just the sock-clad height of front man Michael Hushel. It's the deft stickwork of former Caviar (Island Rec.) drummer Jason Batchko. A touch of swaggering bassmanship from Tom (Cisco Pike/ JoyPoppers) Szidon. Multiple contributions from Mark Joyal & Stacy Cummings. And some serious vocals from chanteuse Laura Coleman. Awash with guy/girl vocals, horns, handclaps, sitar, cellos and pedal steel (Ken Champion from Smog/Jim O'Rourke projects) the buoyant compositions have received radio airplay around the country and drawn praise from such sources as LostAtSea.net, TheFireNote.com, NoiseForToaster, CanYouSeeTheSunset, The Onion, The UK's PennyBlackMusic and others. The just-released full-length debut was produced by Michael with former Webb Brother(Warner UK) Neal Ostrovsky at Neal's lauded B-Side Audio in Chicago's Ukranian Village.
