12/18/12 NEW ALBUM RELEASED!

Picture
As of December 18th, our debut album was born into the world. At 9 tracks, 3 artists, we couldn't be prouder.

It is available for digital download at http://oaklandwinedrinkersunion.bandcamp.com/.
Oakland Wine Drinkers Union (Local 88) is full of drinking songs for the proletariat, rowdy
tales of rambling, and drunken love songs. It has the swagger of punk with a hint of a country
twang. It has a junk band looseness, and is brushed with the blues. From the fist-in-the-air
singalong of "Work is the Curse" to the boozy rockabilly bounce of "Girls Are Insane;" from
the old-time Western swing of "100,00o Midnight Special Cigarettes" to the bluesy
stagger of "Drink Together," and everything in between - Oakland Wine Drinkers Union (Local
88) is a punchy, nine-song album with something for every fighter, lover, rambler, worker, and
drinker.

12/10/12 The new single WORK IS THE CURSE is the Sepiachord Song of the Day!

You've heard the old adage, right? "Drink is the curse of the working classes." Oscar Wilde turned that on its head and said: "Work is the curse of the drinking classes." 100+ years later, OWDU agreed with Mr. Wilde, and wrote a fist-in-the-air singalong about it.
