Morning Madness:: unreleased Thrush Hermit & Steve Poltz videos

The countdown is officially on folk. Next week The Hermit reunion shows will hit Halifax and the mix of nostalgia, rock, and lines shaved into people's head will reach critical mass.

To help get everyone excited, Joel sent over a great video of one of the unreleased gems on the Box Set - out March 17th on New Scotland Records. The video is collection of tour & backstage footage that shows the band back in the day and as they grow older, including MacGetts wearing an outfit that looks like he should be working at a frozen yogurt shop AND A SHIRTLESS SHAWN LAPAIX doing some crazy kung-fu. Exactly.

The song is called In the Morning and shows why people loved and still love The Hermit.



Joel was nice enough to include the new video he and Steve Poltz made for License Plate Eyes. It's song studio footage from Scotland Yard and has some tank tops, moustaches, mesh hats and some Evil Dead style shaky cam work. Again. Gold. Steve's new record - Dreamhouse (review)- is out now on New Scotland Records. I highly suggest you pick it up.
