The Doughboys proudly present their sixth studio album, Running For Covers, 13 brilliant new tracks from the band whose career spans pretty much all the decades rock'n'roll has been in existence. They once again worked at the House of Vibes with producerengineer Kurt Reil, and staged a return to their roots as among the finest interpreters of classic garage rock standards, harkening back to their days as one of the most popular bands in central Jersey in the mid 60's. They dig deep to find lesser-known gems of luminaries like the Kinks, The Band, The Stones, Herman's Hermits and the Fab Four. Then they venture further to unearth outside-genre nuggets from the likes of Lambert Hendricks & Ross, Mose Allison and Neil Diamond, stamping all the tracks with their trademark hoppin' grooves and riffs galore. Hey, they're even covering themselves - infusing new renditions of the A-sides of their two singles for Bell Records with the benefit of their collective years of musical experience and wisdom. The album is being released June 28 by Ram Records.
