The caption on the bio page of the Orbitsuns’ website reads: “This is country, folks, but not as you know it.” That’s maybe not surprising given that this is a band born from the left field of plenty of other music genres.
 
It's been 11 years since Vinnie Dombroski, the Detroit-based lead singer of both post-grunge band Sponge and fetish rock band Crud, decided he needed yet another band to accommodate his artistic output, and the Orbitsuns were born.
 

The Band of Heathens have announced that Colin Brooks, one of the Austin band’s three founders and frontmen, has decided to leave “to explore other interests”.
 
Brooks founded the band in 2006 along with Ed Jurdi and Gordy Quist, and the three have shared the songwriting and lead singing, supported by bassist Seth Whitney and drummer John Chipman. They have made three studio albums, most recently Top Hat Crown & The Clapmaster’s Son.
 

This triple-disc compilation offers the perfect chance for anyone impressed by seeing Hot Club of Cowtown or The Coal Porters play live to further explore the roots of their music. Selling for less than the cost of a single CD, it provides plenty to attract the interest of anyone with a hankering for some full-tilt bluegrass.
