It was called &#8221;I was a Mail-order Bridegroom&#8221;. It came about after my first European and North American solo tour. I&#8217;d toured lots with some very talented people but doing a solo show that actually works was something special for me. The first Bridegroom album was an attempt to capture the nature of those shows. Last year, I decided to go out solo again &#8230;this time on a totally by request basis\u00e2\u0080\u00a6 meaning no set list\u00e2\u0080\u00a6 I&#8217;d just play what was requested. The tour went better than I expected and I wanted to capture how things had changed musically in what was essentially the same format. I&#8217;m pretty happy with how it turned out.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Announcing the release of a new Ed Kuepper album THE RETURN OF THE MAIL-ORDER BRIDEGROOM\u00e2\u0080\u00a6 out on Valve through MGM on APR 18.
