Gordon Withers play The Draft on Cello
Andy Ingram
In what began as a Christmas gift from one brother to another, punk rock cellist Gordon Withers, known for his albums of cello renditions of Jawbreaker and Jawbox as well as being part of the J. Robbins Band, Betwixt, Office Of Future Plans, and BELLSā„, has beautifully covered The 1984 Draft's "Honest".
You can hear it now streaming from Ghettoblaster Magazine.
Poptek is excited to release that brilliant gift to a wider audience with a limited lathe cut 7" featuring Withers' cello rendition of "Honest" backed by the original song taken from The 1984 Draft "Makes Good Choices".
Pre-order now in the Poptek Shop and expect the album to ship in the middle of March. The split will be available digitally from BandCamp starting February 5. All proceeds will benefit the NAACP Legal Defense Fund.
