The Fumes touring with Clutch and Calexico in 2010

22 February 2010 by Soulshine News

After finishing 2009 with their acclaimed second album ‘Sundancer’ sitting at No 2 on Triple J’s Roots Album of The Year The Fumes are back in 2010 with a light hearted release and the final of the singles lifted from the album.  ‘Rogue River Woman’ comes packaged with the accompanying video in a CD Rom format. 

Laid out with inspired quirky hand drawn pictures depicting the two piece throughout with cartoonish personality and images as diverse as can can girls, tight rope walking and scenes from Godzilla and space the zany reel mashes the quandary of love and loss.

The release coincides with The Fumes taking to the road on tours with Clutch and Calexico from the US and their inclusion on this year’s Bluesfest in April all before their departure back to the States in May.
