Updates from Josh Caterer/Duvall

A reader sent us some updates on the ongoing projects of former Smoking Popes vocalist and current Duvall member Josh Caterer.

First, the recent date at the Metro in Chicago was the last for Caterer's brother, Eli who left the band to " take a break for a while." Josh mentions that a solo project from Eli may be possible in the future. The band will be "breaking in" a new bass player at the upcoming Cornerstone Music Festival.

Josh has also announced some details about his upcoming solo release. The devout Christian vocalist has promised to follow up his acoustic collection of gospel tracks with a full length of mostly original material which will not be released on longtime home Asian Man but on Harvest Songs, which is the label of Josh's church. Caterer completed recording this past March with a fall release expected.

Some material from the gospel release can be found here: "The Light of Christ." The last record from Duvall was the Christmas-themed compilation, O Holy Night.
