Franz Nicolay releasing new 10" on Team Science

Team Science Records has relased a 10" EP from Franz Nicolay titled St. Sebastian of the Short Stage.
The The Hold Steady and World/Inferno Friendship Society member has been supporting his acclaimed debut solo full lenth Major General that was released earlier this year.

The four songs on the 10" include a new collaboration with the The Dresden Dolls, a ballad to Watchmen comic character Hollis Mason, and a pair of songs dating from a set of 2001 demos.
