“Silly Goose Music,” the long-awaited follow-up to “Delta-Silly Music for Kids” (2008) is available NOW right HERE on this website! The new album will also be available at a special CD release party performance by Jeremy Lyons (with guest “Washtub” Robbie Phillips) at Club Passim on Saturday, October 15 at 3:30pm. All ages welcome!

Jeremy Lyons & the Deltabilly Boys  (featuring Paul Santopadre on drums and Greg Schatz on bass) are presenting two acoustic shows at the Three Muses on Frenchmen Street in New Orleans. The shows are scheduled for Saturday, October 8 (6:30-9:30) and Sunday October 23 (7-10). There are also unconfirmed rumors of an upcoming recording session planned.

A productive and enjoyable two weeks in New Orleans resulted in the completion of my new solo album, as yet untitled, hopefully to be released in the fall. Work continues in earnest on the follow-up to my 2008 CD “Delta-silly Music for Kids.” Watch this space for more updates.

Some good shows in the month of April! (And other good news as well!)

Members of Morphine & Jeremy Lyons will be headlining the Narrows in Fall River, Mass on April 14, and then playing an early show at Sally O’Brien’s in Somerville, MA on Saturday, April 16. The “psycho-delta” trio of electric baritone sax, drums and two-string bass are next seen playing in New Orleans at dba on Frenchmen St on Friday, April 22. After a two-week break they will be back at their weekly Wednesday residency at Atwood’s Tavern in Cambridge.

Jeremy will be reuniting with the original Deltabilly Boys (Greg Schatz and Paul Santopadre) for two public shows in New Orleans: Wednesday, April 20 at 7 pm is an acoustic show at The Three Muses restaurant (JL will also appear there solo the following Monday). Sunday, April 24 will be a full tilt, electric Deltabilly show at dba.

To top it off, Jeremy plays Jazz Fest at the Chouest Family Kids Tent on Sunday, May 1 at 5 pm!

In other exciting news, Jeremy will be taking the session files (no more “tapes”) of his new solo album with him to New Orleans to be mixed by Grammy Award winner Mark Bingham at Piety Recording in the Bywater, New Orleans. This still untitled work is the long-anticipated follow up the 2007′s Death of a Streetsinger, which was completed shortly before Katrina precipitated Lyons’ move North. We hope to have the record released in the fall.

Work has begun on two Jeremy Lyons projects: the long-awaited solo album of mostly original material, and a follow-up to Delta-Silly Music for Kids. Both CDs have been in the planning stage for some time; both are being recorded at multiple studios. As if working on two projects concurrently were not enough, plans are also in the works for a second album for Jeremy and Members of Morphine Dana Colley and Jerome Deupree.
