New RAKERS album coming this fall
Hi y’all. We spent our pandemic year working on a new album, the first for our new label Full-Tilt Records.
It’s almost done. It has all the tales of heartbreak and humanity and humor you expect from the Rakers, but there is much more. New instruments, new sounds, and new frontiers breached for your listening pleasure. Somewhere between a full mushroom experience and trying that weird kind of ramen you bought that time.
There are a few tweaks here and there to do before we can start sharing it out, but as this two-lane blacktop converges to the vanishing point, we are excited to get this jalopy rolling off the lot! Expect vinyl, a Kickstarter with extravagant and attractive premiums, some videos. We are considering some NFTs for you crypto types. Might even restart the podcast.
The world is your oyster and Raker ends in R, so get ready to slurp up.
FRIDAY April 16 – Electric Depot, Baton Rouge
Outside and free, just like you! Friday April 16 6-9pm

I Think I’ve Heard the Rakers S02 E01 – Orion’s Belt
Was Abraham Lincoln ugly? Is it Leon’s fault that all the traffic lights in Baton Rouge are out of sync? What about tugboats? All this and our new song “Orion’s Belt” kick off season two.
Also, we recently performed a live version of “Orion’s Belt” for the Manship Theatre’s Manship Moments series
Iron Jaw Samson
Iron Jaw Samson walked into My Father’s Moustache in the 70s. A young Lewis Roussel was tending bar in that Bourbon St. establishment. Our new song is the true story of that encounter.
I THINK I’VE HEARD THE RAKERS Episode 12 – Your Eyes Are Mine
In maybe our most epic episode, special guest Tiny Archibald AKA Busta Recap AKA Brenton C Francois joins the band in discussing: being raised by librarians, child-rearing, organ theft, Whitman samplers and the traditions of giving explosives to schoolchildren in Avoyelles Parish. Also we talk a little about Lance’s song “Your Eyes Are Mine”
Here is one of Tiny’s finest moments of GOT recapdom
*walks through the darkness not being able to see a damn thing*
Ok recap is up. This episode was so good after it was over I said out loud “I can’t recap that… It’s too dope”. Anyway Game of throne season 8 episode 3 : the long night aka the one where I forgot to breathe a couple of times aka no but for real it was really hard to see aka Jon snow is actually pretty crappy at saving the day aka Arya Stark from the logo! aka a whole new level of friendzone aka sure a crypt, why not. Recap is in the comments, spoiler protection on! (more on his Facebook page)
