The New Indie Release from Barstool Benny

Dusted off, re-recorded, and dripping with that late-night, backroom soul—The Days Run Wild crawls out of another shoebox full of forgotten demos, polished just enough to keep the grit where it belongs. Every track bleeds straight from the heart of The Barstool Benny Trio, with Benny grinding out smoky organ grooves, Thumper Morello and Boom-Boom Granger holding down the pocket on drums like a man with a grudge, Jimmy “Two Hands” on bass, and special guest Mr. Lou Mercer handling guitar duties with the kind of effortless cool that only comes from knowing better days and worse nights.

Remember, Folks: The notes that matter most are the ones you play between last call and sunrise. Everything else is just filling time.

Benny and Thumper take "Yesterdays" down to half-speed—like watching regret in slow motion. Their notes hang like old suits in abandoned closets while Lou Mercer's production wraps it all in amber, preserving what everyone else is trying to forget.
