| MEDIA ALERT – June 11, 2004 Statement from Leftover Salmon, posted to their web site June 11: We are aware of the rumors that have been circulating over the past few weeks and would like to let everyone know what's going on so there is no confusion. The band is indeed going to take a break at the end of this year. After years of touring everyone is ready for some time off to spend with their families and to pursue solo projects that Salmon's busy schedule has not permitted. As of right now the future of Leftover Salmon is uncertain but the band is not breaking up, just taking a break. Mark wanted us to continue after he left the band and that's what we did. We have toured just as hard, rebuilt the band and put out a new record. Now we feel that we can take a break without letting him down. We're all very proud of our latest release, "Leftover Salmon," and after experiencing so many ups and downs, it feels right to step back while on this high. We want to thank the Salmon family, our friends, and especially our fans as this dream would have never come true if it wasn't for you. We look forward to seeing your faces as we continue to perform in various projects and hope you will all support our decisions and future ventures. This band has created a lifetime of memories for us and that is something that can never go away. The Festival will go on. We will be performing several shows and festivals throughout the summer and play our 3rd annual Halloween celebration at the Fillmore Auditorium in Denver on Saturday October 30th this year. After that, the final show will be New Year's Eve which marks 15 years to the date of the first Leftover Salmon performance. We are excited to reach such a milestone and hope all who can will join us this New Year's. Check our web site for details-to-come. Leftover Salmon |

| “With four ‘brand new Leftovers’ . . . Salmon's lineup isn't just revived. It's respawned.” WASHINGTON POST “Producer and Little Feat keyboardist Billy Payne brings a southern funk sensibility to the album, but the obvious bluegrass overtones flow easily as the Salmon also dabble in folk and country. . . perhaps their finest, most focused album.” RELIX “…Leftover Salmon’s first outing since the passing of banjoist and founding member Mark Vann in 2002. Bluegrass remains the backbone, but the band continues to enrich its always diverse palette.” PASTE “ .. . . . . ‘Leftover Salmon’ is introspective, revealing, painful and private.” ANCHORAGE DAILY NEWS "Leftover Salmon has been lurking around the fringes of the dominant paradigm and confounding the easy-label critics for almost 15 years now, alternately eager and reluctant to stray from its roots, happy to flirt with the jamband ethic without divorcing its first love, a really good song." BOULDER WEEKLY " . .. . a ray of light on the 'grassier side of the jamgrass spectrum." NASHVILLE RAGE “The bottom line here is that this entire CD is perfect from beginning to end. Leftovers never sounded so good.” SOUND WAVES "OK, so the name is a little fishy... Nothing else about this collection of musicians and singer-songwriters, however, is anything but authentic, even visionary." ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER |
