Freewheeling New York rock band THE SWEET THINGS today (April 11) roll out “Brown Leather,” their potent new single and action-packed video. The song is the title track of the band’s second album due June 3 via Wendigo Productions NYC/Spaghetty Town Records, an 11-song disc that’s rife with a sweet mix twangin' bangin' country blues, bluesy country and Southern rock and roll. Watch the video streaming below or at YouTube here and listen to the track here.   The “Brown Leather” video was filmed by award-winning director Video Rahim (Mastodon, Blackberry Smoke) and shot at the Boot Bar in Manhattan, with exterior scenes filmed shot at Chips Bar and Grill in Winder, GA. Read a Q&A with the band on the making of the video and what “Brown Leather” really means below.

BROWN LEATHER tells timeless tales that sound familiar yet fresh at the same time. The album was recorded with producer Matt Chiaravalle at the iconic FAME Recording Studios in Muscle Shoals, AL (The Beatles, Allman Brothers Band, Lynyrd Skynryd) with finishing touches added in NYC’s Flux Studios and Mercy Sound.

Faster and Louder praised the record stating “In Borrowed Shoes is The Sweet Things' Exile On Main St. It runs the stylistic gamut from trashy rock n' roll to blues to country to soulful ballads” while Sleaze Roxx compared it to if the “1972 Stones were exiled in the New York City’s East Village instead of the south of France.”
