New Album!


I don't know why it's taken me so long to post, but here we are in December. Another year seems to have gotten away from me.

Early in August of this year, we finally received the packaged CD of "Sinners and Saints," the third studio album by my band, Halden Wofford & the Hi-Beams. It's been three months since its release, and, contrary to most of my other recordings, I still love listening to this one. You can get it on iTunes, on CDbaby, and by ordering it directly from us on our website at www.hibeams.com. I'm posting the cover, a painting by Bret Bertholf. Featured are some of my favorite sinners, and maybe one saint.

They are from top to bottom, left to right:

Arthur Rimbaud, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickenson, Allen Ginsberg
Robert Johnson, Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, Billie Holliday
Frida Kahlo, Thelonius Monk, Moondog, Tammy Wynette
Johnny Cash, Janis Joplin, Hunter S. Thompson, and Lenny Bruce
