“And They Call Me Mad?,” which features an interview with O’Brien conducted by Jack White, will premiere on Raw Dog Comedy’s “Intergalactic Premiere” series
And They Call Me Mad?, Conan O’Brien’s recently recorded, spoken-word, improvised narrative about the story of Frankenstein will make its world premiere on SIRIUS XM’s Raw Dog Comedy channel on Monday, August 23 at 12:00 pm ET, as part of the channel’s exclusive “Intergalactic Premiere” series. And They Call Me Mad?, which will be released by Third Man Records on Tuesday, August 24, also features an interview with O’Brien conducted by Jack White, Third Man Records’ founder.
The premiere of And They Call Me Mad? will air during Raw Dog Comedy’s weekday show, Comedy By Request hosted by Mark Says Hi!. Monday’s special edition of Comedy By Request will feature the “Intergalactic Premiere” series, the exclusive series that debuts new material from comedians.
Additionally, Ben Swank of Third Man Records will sit down with Mark Says Hi! to go in-depth about the record.
Comedy By Request airs weekdays from 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm ET on Raw Dog Comedy, SIRIUS channel 104 and XM channel 150.
August 10th marks the release of The Secret Sisters’ debut 45 with Third Man Records. The Jack White-produced record features a cover of Johnny Cash’s Big River and the sisters’ take on the classic folksong The Wabash Cannonball. Pre-sales are available now in the Third Man online shop and will be shipped to received on or as close as possible to release date.
The musical influences on the sisters (Laura and Lydia Rogers) aren’t hard to pin down. The pair attributes the development of their distinct vocal style to singing at family picnics, church functions, and to growing up with “a love of music from all sides’” of the family in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. The intimacy between the sisters translates beautifully onto their new record: the B-side boasts harmonies straight out of the 1930s, and the A-side, though decidedly heavier on the guitar, still highlights the pure, clear vocals that are sure to become the trademark of the Secret Sisters.
150 Tri Color singles will be made available of this release. 50 will be included in random mail-orders through Third Man Records’ website, and 100 will be available from their Nashville storefront on Saturday August 14th from 12 noon.
