He also has two new albums coming out: Paparazzi with Bill Lloyd, released by Paisley Pop, and a solo album, Jamie Hoo-ever, to be released by Kool Kat Musik, and featuring songs from various tribute projects he's done over the years...Candlewyck are currently working on their follow-up disc, with guest artists including John Cowan (New Grass Revival), T.

Holly songwriter David Childers has some songs in the soundtrack to Charlotte filmmaker Curtis Gaston's new documentary, The Flag Day Parade.
