Fans of Tom Petty are familiar with the name "Mudcrutch". Heartbreakers Petty, Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench were all members of the band that left Gainesville and headed to California ~35 years ago. Some music was recorded but stardom eluded them and the band broke up. Last August, Tom Leadon* and Randall Marsh joined again with their old mates and new Mudcrutch music was recorded. The CD is due out in late April and the band has booked about a dozen shows in California starting April 12. The single "Scare Easy" is available from iTunes now.

It's only rock and roll. But I like it.
