Anybody heard this? Showed up in my bompstore email update. I must buy it just cuz. I seem to remember people being disappointed in this guy when he opened for someone?? Could be completely making shit up here.

OLIVE, BRIAN - Two Of Everything ( Co-prod by Dan of the Black Keys) -
Label:ALIVE Ex-Greenhornes guitarist & Soledad Brothers multi
instrumentalist. Following his 2009 self-titled debut , which was praised
for skillfully blending soulful R&B with raunchy garage and psychedelia,
Brian Olive takes us further on his latest full length Two Of Everything.
Listeners will recognize a number of musical touchstones here (Night
Tripper era Dr. John, Exuma, early Funkadelic, Canned Heat, West Coast
psych, etc) but the end result is completely Olive's own, an insanely
dynamic, soulful, psychedelically-rich summer album perfect for
intergalactic flight, night visions, or voodoo rituals. Two Of Everything
was recorded and produced by both Olive and Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys
at The Diamonds in Cincinnati, and Easy Eye Sound in Nashville and
features a revolving cast of talent including long time right hand man
Mike Weinel, Detroit psychedelic caveman David Shettler (SSM, the Sights),
Daniel Allaire (Darker My Love), Jared McKinney (Greenhornes), and with
Courtney Jaye, Leisa Han, Kari Kragness, and Sarah Benn on backing vocals.
The hauntingly beautiful artwork is by Laura Dolan. Brian is currently on
tour in the US and will be joining the legendary Dr. John and Dan
Auerbach on stage at this year's Bonnaroo Festival in Tennessee. He is
also laying down sax parts for Dr. John's upcoming album.

Personally, I love his work. All of it.

Make sure your sneaker laces, they get tied.

I keep trying to like his solo work because I love the Soledad Brothers, but so far, it's just not happening.

I saw him open for TBK last summer and I dug it. I had no idea he used to be in the greenhornes.

I was watching some Brian Olive videos on youtube and Patrick from The Greenhornes was drumming for him last year. As seen here:

Not really breaking news because they're all still friends, just cool to see that they still make music together.
