    Born of four hopeful rednecks and numerous misconceptions, Athens, GA's Modern Skirts crept onto the scene in 2005 with its debut record, 'Catalogue of Generous Men'. The record received some good reviews, finding itself at #11 on Paste Magazines' Records of 2005, and several unwanted comparisons (mostly to Ben Folds {don't use lots of piano on your band's next record}). After touring quite a bit ...and losing massive amounts of steam over the following 2 years, they returned to the studio with David Lowery (Cracker) and Mike Mills (REM) handling production duties. 'All of Us in Our Night' was the resulting effort that climbed its way to #15 on the CMJ charts. It was heralded by Pitchfork as "bloodless and hermetic" and "not as good as the first one". Whoa NANCY! But 2009 has found these hicks with a renewed sense of being. They have signed on with Chicago booking agency Red Ryder and have an exciting third record in the works that their families have described as "unsettling" and "sounding like drugs". My god this could get interesting.
