Review: Franz Nicolay Forgets His Mustache Wax, Goes Lite for ‘Luck & Courage’

Pretty clever album art though. The bunny embodies the name.

Franz Nicolay is a man of many hats. Founder of the World/Inferno Friendship Society. Former member of the Hold Steady. Current member of Against Me! and Guignol. Plus, he’s played with the Dresden Dolls, the Living End, Mariachi El Bronx, and Bouncing Souls, and probably written some books or plays too.  Many hats, but only one mustache — a fantastic handlebar that he willfully ignores on his latest solo LP, Luck & Courage.

“Fans hoping for some waxed-mustache melodrama of the Coney Island variety will be woefully disappointed: Nicolay has shelved his accordion in favor of shuffling folk.”
