Today, Low Cut Connie release Dirty Pictures (Part 2) via Contender Records.

NPR featured the band on Morning Edition with NPR Music critic Ann Powers claiming "[Adam] Weiner's songs share something in common with Bruce Springsteen's. 'He's looking at characters who are a bit on the edge, but who are also all-American,' she says. 'This is classic stuff, from Steinbeck to today. And he taps into that on this album in really tender, moving ways.'"

Frontman Adam Weiner recently sat down with Rolling Stone at a diner in South Philly to discuss the record. Jonathan Bernstein wrote "The new album, the band's fifth, just may serve as the moment when the rest of the country finds out about the Philadelphia rock & roll outfit, who have developed a small but devoted cult following with their unusually unfiltered, exuberant live performances during the past decade."
 
NPR Music featured the album as a First Listen saying, "Across five albums of piano-driven rock and soul, Low Cut Connie has proven masterfully fluent in the foundational languages of Western pop, living at the crossroads where the church house meets the roadhouse, or where the Dew Drop Inn meets CBGB... The blood that pumps through the Philadelphia band's work comes from a place that's fresh, original, and truly pledged to rock and roll."
