DENT MAY
dentmay.com
Mississippi songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Dent May recently shared his new Christmas song, "I'll Be Stoned For Christmas," just in time for the holiday season. The song was produced by Cole Furlow of Dead Gaze at his house in Oxford, MS and is inspired by partying with old friends on Christmas night after the family festivities have wrapped up.
Dent May's band members are apparently very handsome, as Lara noted in 2009, "my concert date, Kate, would like it to be known, throughout the e-world, that she would not refuse sex from any of Dent May’s band members, if they offer."
The final year end show for Dent May (who "sorta-kinda-maybe sounds like Jens Lekman, thank you very much") will play Proud Larry's in Oxford, Mississippi, along with Dead Gaze and Young Buffalo. Dent May's latest album Warm Blanket is out now on Paw Tracks, available on all popular formats, CD, LP and digital.
