Bonny Billy & the Picket Line: Funtown Comedown | Release Date: Nov. 17, 2009

It appears that there is now a release date for "Funtown Comedown"

Nov. 17th, 2009

I had a great time shooting this album over the year of 2008 with Will and the gang. It's nice to see something that

everyone put so much time and effort into come to fruition.

This release is Vinyl only, so you'll have to go buy a copy to see the various photographs of the band presented in and throughout this album.

Autumn in Red River Gorge, KY

I was finally able to get out and hike around for a

bit last weekend during the Autumn peak.

Hopefully I'll be back to being able to ascend/descend ropes soon

so I can start shooting some climbers.

Bonny Billy & the Picket Line: Funtown Comedown

Look for the Vinyl edition of "Funtown Comedown" in the near future. All photography for this Live Studio album shot by me (Dan Lubbers).

Here's what Drag City has to say about the upcoming album:

Bonny Billy and The Picket Line Funtown Comedown
LIVE (in the studio) is the Bonny one with next-generation bluegrass band known as The Picket Line. They’re the official dance band of Funtown, a metaphysical little community in the woods outside Louisville. Bonny and the boys (and girl) run through a set of BPBclassics, some Palace songs and a few classic country covers. VINYL ONLY! (And download exclusively on the new-and-retro-improved www.dragcity.com!)

Bio In Climbing Magazine Issue: 278

Excerpt taken from Climbing Magazine:

A resident of Louisville Kentucky, the freelance photographer Dan Lubbers (danlubbers.com) discovered climbing eight years ago, after a visit to the local gym. A creative mind and a love of the arts have ushered Lubbers, 29, into photojournalism, landing him jobs shooting everyone from Jason Kehl, to the Icelandic band L.B.H. Krew, to fashion models. "Photography/videography is always something I've created to some degree," Lubbers says "I started to approach it as a career path in the past year and a half." His evocative Perspective portrait of the New Mexico shredder Timy Fairfield (p.90), shirtless, was taken after five weeks in a van with Fairfield as part of the La Sportiva Solutions tour in 2007. The dark, high-contrast shot aptly captures Fairfield's intense personality. "We shot it in a field at night in the Red River Gorge," recalls Lubbers. "It took maybe 45 minutes-it was mid-November and cold!" Lubbers' work has appeared in Climbing, Iceland Airwaves, and Urban Climber Magazines.
