Stones Throw Records just picked up a new artist, and it sounds like they got in the DeLorean to sign him. His name is Mayer Hawthorne, a 29 year old from Ann Arbor (a city outside of Detroit which is also home to producers Dabrye and Samiyam) with no formal training in music, you wouldnt guess he leads the vocals. What's even crazier is that Peanut Butter Wolf signed Mayer after hearing two tracks! He just released a heartshaped 7" with the label, limited to 1000 copies. I'm gonna try n get my hands on that! Mayer Hawthorne & The County are currently recording their first debut album. Can't wait to cop that shit. Below is his first single, "Just Ain't Gonna Work Out".
