It is likely not a coincidence that the latest studio effort by the Slip, entitled Eisenhower, hits today, election day. To mark the occasion, the band will perform a live set on KEXP in Seattle. The performance will stream live at 9:30am PST, after which it will remain archived at the site for two weeks. This evening, the trio will perform at Seattles Crocodile Cafe as part of a national tour that will eventually include a run of dates opening for My Morning Jacket.

Oh yes, and one further thought regarding this first Tuesday in November, jambands.com offers you a gentle reminder to VOTE.
