New Richmond Fontaine!
The new Richmond Fontaine album, The High Country (which interestingly seems to be a single narrative, thus further closing the gap between Willy Vlautin’s songs and his fiction) is due out in September, but in the meantime, live versions of two of the tracks have popped up, together with the news Willy’s first novel, The Motel Life, has just been turned into a motion picture directed by the Polsky Brothers and starring Stephen Dorff, Dakota Fanning and Kris Kristofferson.
Thanks to Jane Palfreyman for the heads-up.

There’s a good clip of Willy and another band member doing the first single from the album here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyvAYW5jAiA
I’ve got Vlautin-mania at the moment. I’m a little in awe of the guy, actually.
