If you have never heard of the Trashpickers until now, consider yourself lucky. 

Long-suffering dumpsters (those who are hip to the dump scene) have been waiting for years to hear the Trashpickers' debut album, Pick of the Litter.  Now, at last, the wait is over and the transfer station gates are open wide.  Come on in and take your Pick of the Litter

As serious fans of dump music will tell you, The Trashpickers are a dump supergroup—a collaboration between the Dump Belles, whose sweet swap-shop doo wop sounds have broken hearts in dumps the world around, and the Dump Sirs, whose dump-a-billy rhythms keep their fans crushing cans and coming back for more.  Together, these two fully loaded trashy trios have more smash dump hits than a glass recycling bin on Saturday morning.

Pick of the Litter was recorded on the Epping/Nottingham border, and it captures the spirit of the border with music of truly borderline quality.  The Trashpickers combine gritty Nottinghamgrooves with soggy, tear-soaked Epping songsmanship to create a grab bag of music that explores the joy and pain of love, discovery, and rejection at the dump.  From their refreshing take on the traditional dump standard “Jessie Belder (the Hoarder)” to pop-bottle-rocking, gas-pedal-stomping originals like “All I Really Need (The Dump Guitar Song)” and “Dump Run”, Pick of the Litter will have your toes tapping all the way to the dump.   But don’t forget that handkerchief—with heart wrenching ballads like “Baby Left Me for the Dump Man” and “Darling Left Me at the Swap Shop (Again),” you’re definitely going to need it. 

Come and get it, take it or leave it—it’s the TrashpickersPick of the Litter! - Wanda Baggitt
