Default Shiflett is writing new tunes!
He disclosed on today's podcast (11/27/17) that he is writing a new record in his LA office! Yes! "Studio time is booked for the new year. New record likely won't be out for a year or more", but I love his solo stuff!

That's be awesome, throwback to Western Ballads, I never really got the Dissonance stuff.

Even some peasantry would be fine, but not his honky tonk.

But honestly, I'm glad the dude is doing whatever the fuck he wants, jumping from genere to genere, mixing them and just having fun.

That's what some other bands should be doing. *massive wink*

West Coast Town is so good. It's a hybrid of Western Tonk. I love that he gets to do this and we get to hear it. He really is a talent.

Can't wait for a new Shifty album. Loved the last one, but missed him when he toured. I hope they keep letting him sing every now and then when Dave needs a break

West Coast Town was awesome - thought I'd hate it but I LOVED it. Can't wait for the new stuff and the tour to go with it. Hope he gets Brian to tour with him again...he's such a nice guy.

He's talked about it in recent interviews in the past tense so I think Jackson U is done. Bummer, that was a great project.

Not that Scott has any authority but the impression he gives is that its done-zo.

But I've heard new Viva Death so I don't give a shit about any other Shiflett side projects

Yeah figured as much, I guess he just wanted to move onto different stuff rather than straight up rock. Ah well. Had a good week in 2008 watching them around the UK.

'Soon'
Sooner than a Trent Reznor soon, though.
