Century Media has inked Bob Wayne and will release Outlaw Carnie on October 26th. Here is the announcement:

One can always best gauge success by the number of people their music touches and has a positive impact on, not by the sheer amount of units sold. This has never been more evident than in the case of the immensely talented singer/songwriter/performer and dynamic storyteller Bob Wayne, who has just inked a worldwide deal with Century Media.

Best known for his leather vest, bandana and revolving crew of banjo players, fiddle players and upright bassists, Bob Wayne carries the torch for the outlaw country tradition with a modern punk snarl. His fanbase runs the gamut and his music offers something for everyone and always starts a party.

Bob's debut label offering, Outlaw Carnie, forsakes none of the gritty truth of his three prior releases, even if this one isn't slapped on a burned CD-R and sold in a plastic sandwich bag out of the trunk of his Cadillac limousine. Click here to view the live performance of the track "Driven By Demons" and there is no better introduction to the wild world of Bob Wayne, so strap in because it's one hell of a ride.

Starting Oct. 8th you can catch Bob Wayne and his backing band, The Outlaw Carnies, across North America alongside the Legendary Shack Shakers.

"With this new album for Century Media, we really took our time," Bob says proudly of his first worldwide release. "We took some of the songs I wasn't happy with and re-recorded them with a full band, mixed them and added new instrumentation. I've sang some of these songs over the last four years, so the songs have changed. Sometimes the songs morph, I sing them with more character. This record has some songs you haven't heard and songs I've changed completely."

Outlaw Carnie also boasts an impressive list of buddies and session players, including Nashville-based upright bass player David Roe (who played with Johnny Cash for many years), fiddle player Billy Contreras (who has played fiddle for George Jones) and Bob's old friends Andy Gibson (who plays with Hank III) and Donnie Harran (Bob Dylan, BR549). Bob states, "Donnie and Andy have been on all of my CDs, they're amazing musicians".
