Patty Hurst Shifter are friends who formed as a band to help draw a crowd to see a (then) up & coming band from Athens, Drive-By Truckers that they all were fans of. Because well, once upon a time no one knew who they were and no one was coming to see them in Raleigh, NC. Hard to believe, we know...

In time they recorded an critically acclaimed album of their own, followed by another, and now three limited edition EP's before their next studio album comes out in May/June '08. This last year they toured Europe for the first time (making $) had the experience of getting to open some more shows in the South for the much more popular (now) Drive-By Truckers. "08 will find them expanding their US touring base to include the whole of the country.

Says Ryan Adams, "Really incredible songs. Patty Hurst Shifter rocks ass!"
