 AnnouncementGuitarist Jimmy Jenkins & bass player Tyson Frawley have left The Veda Rays due to personal circumstances. It was a pretty good run. We wish them success with any and all future endeavors, creative or otherwise. Tyson will be devoting his entire energy to being a full-time single dad. Jimmy Jenkins is relocating to a mountainous region with his long-time ladylove to live the quiet life. Here is a scene from happier times -- a nice afternoon we spent lazing about in Austin, TX this past March during SXSW.
Upcoming EP/ free track for New Year's Eve
We are finishing up some last minute stuff for our in-between-albums EP which we are projecting will be out around late March/ early April of the new year. This little collection of reflective tracks will reveal deeper and more subtle nuances of the band.The EP will include the song Time Is A Vise which features a guest appearance by the inimitable Julee Cruise. Look out for the early release of our forthcoming track Old Long Since Now (our sort of Auld Lang Syne) right around the end of December...it will be given away through our site and possibly through a few other select media sources.
