Cotton Jones hit the road this September in support of their debut album Paranoid Cocoon. Primarily consisting of two former members of the now-defunct Page France, Michael Nau and Whitney McGraw have actually been touring pretty much non-stop throughout 2009. This tour has or will take them through four large festivals and ends in October.
With all the touring, I'm not really sure when they had time to record it, but the band also released a new five-song EP, through Quite Scientific Records, called The Rio Ranger. It is the third and final EP release in a series that has been released through the label. The EP also contains original illustrations from the band.
Their indie-pop sound is a mix hazy, sun-soaked brand of psychedelia and old-time country. Fans of Lee Hazelwood and Nancy Sinatra as well as She & Him, the project from M.Ward and Zooey Deschanel, will also find something to love in these songs.
