Stuff In My Pockets, Vic Ruggiero, Cassette

Stuff In My Pockets is the latest project from singer-songwriter Vic Ruggiero. As with his other solo work, the record forgoes the ska music he is known for, while favoring a more bluesy, folk rock sound. This breezy collection of tunes plays into standard indie rock and power pop tropes, at times recalling Elvis Costello. While many of the tracks feature a laid-back vibe, others showcase a more energetic side of The Slackers frontman. The album will be available on February 10th through Org Music.
