But simultaneous with the release of this 11-track disc came news that \u2013 after a critically (if not commercially) successful 10-year run \u2013 the Knoxville, TN-based TimLee3 would be going on indefinite hiatus. The good news is that their final album finds TimLee3 going out on a high note; the songs and playing are as solid as ever. The album&#8217;s amped-up approach (with little of the Windbreakers&#8217; <strong>Byrds<\/strong>y jangle) showcases husband-and-wife vocal arrangements that call to mind <strong>John Doe<\/strong> and <strong>Exene Cervenka<\/strong> at their best. While TimLee3 will be missed, here&#8217;s to seeing what they come up with next.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>File next to: The Blasters, X, Long Ryders TimLee3 is the band started by former Windbreakers guitarist and his bass-playing wife, Susan Bauer Lee.
