Spoonboy, lead singer of The Max Levine Ensemble, will release his second solo record The Papas on May 1, his first in six years. The record was recorded in April 2010 with a backing band consisting of members of Nana Grizol, Hot New Mexicans, Grape Soda, Madeline, Elf Power, Defiance Ohio, and more. The album is a joint release by Plan-it-X Records, Fuck You is a Seven Letter Word Records, Discount Horse Records, and Shout Out Loud Prints, and will be available on vinyl, CD and cassette tape. In addition to the proper full length, the CD, tape and download will also come with bonus lo-fi bedroom recordings. All formats will come with a zine with lyrics, stories, essays, and other pieces.

Spoonboy will be on tour for much of May and June supporting The Papas. Tour dates and details can be found on Spoonboy's website.
