Favorite Gentlemen is an Atlanta-based artist
community and record label started and run by Andy Hull (Manchester Orchestra,
Bad Books, Right Away, Great Captain!) and Jeremiah Edmond (formerly of
Manchester Orchestra) that has helped to develop and release music for Manchester
Orchestra, Kevin Devine, Bad Books; Right Away, Great Captain!, O’Brother, All
Get Out, Harrison Hudson, Death On Two Wheels, and many more.
The label stands unique to many others, still carrying the
spirit of community and friendship as its foundation. As a label and a
community Favorite Gentlemen has always believed in "strength in
numbers," working together pooling resources, relationships and knowledge
to push each artist and the community as a whole forward.
It's in this spirit that the label is now launching its
first ever official Favorite Gentlemen tour featuring four of the family’s acts
(AllGet Out, Death On Two Wheels, Harrison Hudson and Junior
Astronomers).
In celebration of the inaugural tour Favorite Gentlemen is
partnering with Noisetrade.com to give away a sampler featuring music from the
bands on the tour, plus other great FG artists. To download the free
sampler, visit:http://www.noisetrade.com/thefavoritegentlemen.
A new All Get Out song (“Inclinations”) will
be premiering tomorrow on www.Absolutepunk.net, but in the meantime, check
