Mountain Fever Records Release Leaves in Late October By Throwdown Thursday.
Mountain Fever Records has announced the release of Throwdown Thursday’s latest single, Leaves in Late October. Written by band member Evan Maynard, this heartfelt original blends the group’s signature drive with tender storytelling, capturing the beauty and fragility of a love that, like autumn itself, is vibrant yet fleeting.
This feels like the story of someone who fell hard for a love that was never meant to last; a fleeting connection that seemed so real in the moment, yet was built more on illusion than truth. It’s the kind of romance that sweeps you off your feet, full of passion and promise, only to disappear just as quickly, leaving nothing but memories behind. Like autumn leaves carried away on the wind, the love is beautiful, but brief, colourful and alive for a season, then gone, leaving a quiet ache where something once felt so vibrant – Evan Maynard.
Leaves in Late October showcases Throwdown Thursday’s stellar lineup, each member adding their own artistry to bring Evan Maynard’s vision to life.
Throwdown Thursday features: Evan Maynard on lead vocal and mandolin; Kati Penn Jenkins on fiddle and harmony vocals; Justin Jenkins on banjo; Ronald Mosley on guitar; Kyle Perkins on bass and Austin Maynard on harmony vocals.
With its powerful blend of emotion, storytelling, and first-class musicianship, Leaves in Late October marks another great chapter for Throwdown Thursday and sets the tone for what’s to come.
Leaves in Late October is now available on all streaming platforms.
About Throwdown Thursday:
This group hails from Central Kentucky, delivering high energy performances and a musical chemistry that has earned them a devoted following. The band evolved from a regular Thursday night livinh room jam session during the beginnings of the Covid era. The band members forged a friendship fuelled by a shared passion for fierce bluegrass. From their very first gathering it was clear to each that this group of seasoned pickers had a chemistry that would demand more than a once a week get together. Their music needed to be heard.
