Ramone (Ramones), Pete Steinkopf (The Bouncing Souls), Sam Bey (The Parlor Mob) and Jared Hart (Mercy Union). In support of his newest effort, Lashley will be supporting this release by staying on the road as much as possible under the current circumstances including Mercy Union‘s record release on Friday, August 5th at Crossroads in Garwood, NJ.
“The album title came to me on a morning drive along the coast where I live. I saw what I thought were five herons, but they were actually great egrets. Thematically, it’s the same as the rest of my solo material. All of the stuff that I write is directly related to my personal life in one way or another.”
