Parasol welcomes Chicago folk-rock act Cameron McGill & What Army. Their new album, Warm Songs for Cold Shoulders, is set for an early April release on Parasol Records. Lots of touring in support.

Veteran Seattle psych-pop band The Green Pajamas' gorgeous new album, Poison In the Russian Room, is set for an early April launch. This is their 7th release for Hidden Agenda Records.

Hometown heroes New Ruins' second album, We Make Our Own Bad Luck, will be released by Hidden Agenda this Spring. Rootsy folk-rock haunted by rural spectres. LP in March, CD in April.

The new album from former Television (and current Matthew Sweet and Rocket from the Tombs) guitarist Richard Lloyd will be released in April, hopefully. Entitled The Jamie Neverts Story it's an album of Hendrix covers with a rock-n-roll backstory that is pure Richard Lloyd.

Hidden Agenda Records will release the debut album from Chicago slowburn-folk troupe The Horse's Ha, led by Janet Bean (Eleventh Dream Day, Freakwater) backed by stalwart Chicago indie-rock vets. Think Fairport Convention, Pentangle and a little Astral Weeks, if you catch their drift. LP in May, CD in June.

In May, our Hidden Agenda imprint welcomes veteran New Zealand guitar-pop band The Bats to the roster, and hope you are as breathless at the notion of a new album as we are. The Guilty Office is The Bats 8th album and it lush and melancholy.

June will see the release of a new album from California trio The Orange Peels, led by esteemed songsmith Allen Clapp.

Medium High, the 28-minute mini-album from Chicago psych-pop troupe The 1900s releases on January 20, 2009.
