Hidy,
My name is J.T. Lack and I represent the Mayhem String Band of Oxford, Mississippi. The boys are overjoyed to be returning once more to Barley's Taproom in Asheville July 7. Of course, any publicity would be greatly appreciated by the band and the good folks hosting. The Mayhem String Band has performed at Barley's several times and has always had a blast...the crowd seems to have a damn good time, too. The show starts around 7pm and is free.
With the hope that you'll provide a little coverage of us, I've included a short press release and a hi res pic of the Mayhem String Band. We are available for phone interviews any time, and plenty of info is available at the following:

Mayhem String Band
In a medium somewhere between songcraft, energized theatrics, blazing solos, heart-wrenching harmonies and a plain ole’ good time, the Mayhem String Band has a reputation like few other string

Memphis-based punk rock juggernaut Jay Reatard has adopted a fistful of musical approaches since he first began recording in his bedroom, writing and recording frantic punk, synth punk, power pop and straightforward rock & roll tunes at a frantic pace since releasing his debut EP in 1998. He has released recordings as a solo artist and as a member of The Reatards and Lost Sounds. In 2006, when Reatard stepped out as a solo artist, he released a single "Hammer, I Miss You" on Goner and a full-length album, Blood Visions, via In the Red. After issuing a handful of solo 7"s, Reatard signed with Matador Records in 2008, and in April of that year he released the first in a series of six singles for the label, "See Saw." In June Matador released Singles 06-07 which gathered up songs from an array of singles and labels, then followed it in October with Matador Singles '08.------------------------ Buy Tickets for Jay Reatard at Orange Peel on 7/7/2009.
