Fresh off the release of Wit's End and Humor Risk, his two critically-acclaimed 2011 albums, singer/songwriter extraordinaire Cass McCombs shows no signs of slowing down. McCombs will kick off his first North American of 2012 this week in Phoenix, AZ, and will be in town here in Baltimore on January 21st at The Ottobar. Not only that, but the new music keeps on coming. On January 31st, he'll release a new single, "Bradley Manning," a song about the U.S. soldier who was arrested after allegedly providing confidential information to WikiLeaks. It's a real late '60s/early '70s moody rocker with a steady, heavy groove; a cool, calm, and collected sort of protest song.
