Deer Tick started out in 2004 (in Providence, Rhode Island) playing music that could pretty accurately be described as "punk-roots rock." Through years of touring, recording, solo projects and just plain life, the band lands more squarely in simply the roots-rock camp for their latest project. Songwriter and frontman John McCauley, guitarist Ian O'Neil, drummer Dennis Ryan, and bassist Christopher Ryan actually have two new records out simultaneously- Deer Tick Vol. 1 is acoustic-leaning, and Deer Tick Vol. 2 is a more electric affair. Deer Tick brought a great new batch of songs to famed Ardent Studios in Memphis; great enough to warrant the dual release.
