Calvin Johnson previews new Gallows Wine album with "Pink Cadillac"

Calvin Johnson's new album Gallows Wine isn't out till April but you can hear his Crampsy shaker "Pink Cadillac" below.

Here's the scoop...

The first digital single from the Calvin Johnson album Gallows Wine [KLP287], "Pink Cadillac" was written by a fifteen year old Calvin, months before witnessing Tav Falco's Panther Burns open for The Cramps at Irving Plaza. The inspiration for "Pink Cadillac" is rockabilly from the Midwest and mid-south. The execution, by Calvin (and members of Hartle Road at Pompeii Studio in Columbus, Mississippi), is classic tear-down threnody. You can get a digital copy of "Pink Cadillac" and pre-order the Gallows Wine album via Bandcamp right here. Listen to "Pink Cadillac" below.
