The Hold Steady have recorded a "drinking song" for the "Game of Thrones" soundtrack. The song will be released on Record Store Day (4/20).

The Hold Steady has announced more dates for their summer tour of North America.

Craig Finn has teamed up with Signature Brew to launch his very own "Clear Heart" beer. The full press release, and "making of video" is in the replies. This is just all kinds of bad-ass.

From The Press Release

Following an extensive tasting and testing session at the Signature Brew Pub, where a shortlist of 25 very different brews were supped and sampled, Craig selected his favourite flavours, aromas and styles. These were then taken by the Master Brewer, combined, and the brewing process was set in motion. Several weeks later, hot on the tail of his solo release, “Clear Heart, Full Eyes”, the beer was ready, Craig’s very own Signature Brew.

You can check out a new Craig Finn song titled "New Friend Jesus" over at Stereogum. It's my personal favorite track off his new album Clear Heart Full Eyes, which releases on January 24th.

Craig Finn (The Hold Steady) is heading out on some solo tour dates.
