The Gaslight Anthem frontman Brian Fallon has announced details of a side-project called The Horrible Crowes.
The band - which also features his guitar tech Ian Perkins - are working on new material for a potential album release later this year.
"Gaslight isn't planning on recording until the fall, for a 2012 release," explains Fallon of the side-project's origins on his personal blog. "I can't sit still, so I'm doing this for fun, nothing more. This is my 'for me' record, Gaslight is my baby, no mistake.
"I always said I never would do a solo record so that's why I found a partner in crime in Ian," he adds. "So it's not going to be the acoustic Brian Fallon road show. There's organs, pianos, even - gasp - strings! There's drums, everything. So don't expect a folk record. We'll put some music up closer to when we figure out when we're recording."
