WOOLWORTHY - ELectric Heartbreak

Chicago's WOOLWORTHY were mainstays of Boss Tuneage's "ink Splat" logo years, being one of our most critically acclaimed bands between 2001-2003 with the release of the near iconic "BLASTED INTO ASHES" mini album and "RECYCLER" compilation as well as two amazing European and UK tours in 2001 and 2002. The members remained active in bands including TEXTBOOK and THE DEAD ON, both whom had subsequent releases on Boss T, as well as featuring in other bands such as NOISE BY NUMBERS and DAN VAPID AND THE CHEATS..

Now, they are back, with unfinished business and sounding like they have never been away!

Anchored by the classic line-up of Rudy Gonzalex - vocals/guitar, Rick Uncapher - bass, Mark Doyle - drums, and Dave Suh - lead guitar/vocals, the band is picking up right where it left off - playing up-tempo, anthemic rock and roll.

“I wrote a bunch of songs during the 2020 pandemic lock down, and I thought they sounded very Woolworthy. I had a gut feeling to save them for the right time. 2023 became the right time. I asked Rick and Mark if they wanted to work on some new songs together. Once we started rehearsing, the songs began to breathe and take shape and I knew they were Woolworthy songs. It felt like it did back in 2002 when we were in Rick's basement jamming.“ - Rudy

"ELECTRIC HEARTBREAK" represents a brand new album, 20 years on from their original demise! And its been worth the wait!! Recorded under the watchful eye of Jeff Dean (SAMIAM, BRAID - who also guest features on one track) and mastered by Mike Hagler (WILCO, THE MEKONS, WACO BROTHERS) in their hometown of Chicago.. this is not just a studio project, the band is back and gigging as well - playing their first show in almost 20 years in Chicago in November with more gigs and touring planned for 2024!
