Hello everybody! For some unexplained reason you ended up here, on Flatbroke Trio's MySpace-page... but, I'm glad you did!We are about to release 10" vinyl containing atleast 6, maybe 8 tracks... It'll be out this summer. We will promote the record touring all over Finland until 28th of July. After that we'll take a little break... You see friends, I am moving to the U.S. for a year and naturally we can't play together too often... But we'll be back!!! You better check out our page every now and then, since we may play some gigs if I come around for holidays or something... And sometime in the summer or fall of 2009 I'll get my gear back here and we'll start playing shows again!!!Few words about the record... It will be released by rather new finnish label called Talsti Records (check out their MS-page!). Format will be 10 inch vinyl, but I'm guessing that they will release a cd version aswell... Songs are mostly covers, but I wrote few of my own too. For the first time I co-wrote something... With 80-something year old grand mother in Arizona!! No kiddin'!! She wrote the words and I wrote the music and there's one song that is sung by her granddaughter Tonya Lynn!! You can hear the track on our player, song's called "Don't Look Back". There's also another brand new track from our forthcoming release, it's an old Billy Walker song "I've Got A Leaving On My Mind" Check them out!!I think we did a pretty good job with the record. It was recorded live in the studio and I think it's more rockabilly this time... We taped some "unusual" cover numbers by Morrissey and Jason Ringenberg and turned them into our style.I am exited about this record, and I don't say that too often... So, don't forget to ask your local record dealer! But ofcourse you can also contact us, and we'll send you one!!!!Thanks for checking us out!!!-Rami Soini-

Sounds Like: Well... This is hard, but I'll try...Morrissey backed up by the High Noon, Chris Isaak going through J.Cash's '56 songs (slightly drunk...), Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys trying to play Sex Pistols... I dunno......but you'll get the general idea; old rockabilly and hillbilly, but not trying to be a freaking history lesson!!!
