Shorty

Shorty
Last One In My Mouth Is A Jerk 7"
WorryBird Disk

I don't remember where I got this vinyl rip, but I stumbled across it in my files a few weeks ago and can't seem to stop playing it. I'm ordered the vinyl for myself this morning, and will be on the hunt for any of their 7" still outstanding from my collection. Shorty was, of course, the preamble to U.S. Maple, and the best I can describe them is as a much noisier and US Maplier version of Chicago noise rock bands from the early 90's. They are not nearly as popular as they should be, but they did it right before I knew what right even was.

I am in a prog/noise-rock duo called YALL based out of Austin/Denton, TX. I am Travis and play guitar and my good friend and partner Andy plays drums. We have released a 7 song ep called Drink From Between Our Hair which we are giving away for free which can be downloaded here:

We have been playing shows in various cities in Texas and are trying to gain notoriety. Perhaps you could help us with that.
