***

On February 05th physically (and November 20th, 2026 digitally), Nashville alternative country institution Lambchop will release Demoed, a new EP featuring an all-star lineup of artists singing over demo versions of songs from August’s Punching the Clown.

Kurt Wagner and his companion Andrew Broder made a list of people to ask and sent them the demos along with the finished Punching the Clown album. They’ve asked them to keep it simple and not over think it, to keep it in the spirit of what a demo might be. Like a sketch for a painting, a demo. Sometimes the artists added other elements furthering their artistic involvement. It was their choice, their reaction to the premise and the tune.

Looking at the result, it might seem like one of those tribute albums that are put together when an artist dies or needs to raise money for an operation or medical treatment. But Kurt assures us, he is very much alive and all over what you hear here. Unlike cover versions of Lambchop songs, these are songs Lambchop made — Kurt is just not the singer. Jake, Haley, Alan, Channy, Dan, Lauren, Jenn, and Mari are.

Lambchop are going on an extensive European tour this winter.
