It is midsummer and we have taken a break from shows to focus on friends and family and to work on our fourth album, "Truth Hits Everybody." A few tracks from these sessions are embedded in the media player.

Vince and Kerri have had their first child, Liam Blaney. And Russ and Abby have a child on the way in September. As children become a part of our innner nexus, it makes me realize that love between our friends and family is as much a part of Rusty Starz as the music is.
