Now a Los Angeles, California resident, Lansdale is a regular performer at the famed Hotel Café there in Hollywood. Lansdale’s music has been featured in films such as, Cold in July, starring award-winning actor, Michael C. Hall of Showtimes’ hit series Dexter; IFC Channel, Animal Planet, and the award winning Sundance TV Channel series, Hap and Leonard, where Lansdale can also be spotted as an actress. “As a vocalist, she walks the line between traditional and contemporary sounds throughout. She knocks out some notes that will leave you wondering ‘How did she do that?” said Billboard’s Chuck Dauphin. As an author, Lansdale was first published at the tender age of eight by Random House, and is the author of several short stories and novellas, along with publications from Harper Collins, Titan Books, & others. Lansdale is the editor of assorted anthology collections, including Subterranean Press’ Impossible Monsters. Her new collection, Terror Is Our Business, was lauded by Publisher’s Weekly as “storytelling that delightfully takes on a lighter and sharper edge.” Most recently, her collaboration with her father and brother, The Companion, was adapted to episode 4 of the television remake of Shudder’s Creepshow, produced by Walking Dead producer, Greg Nicotero. Fans will also have the chance to watch Lansdale on a new reality television show on the USA Network in early 2020.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.kaseylansdale.com/" rel="noopener">http://www.kaseylansdale.com/</a><br /><br />NEAR MINT: <a href="https://www.comicsbeat.com/dc-launches-massive-believe-in-wonder-campaign-for-wonder-woman-80th-anniversary/" rel="noopener">https://www.comicsbeat.com/dc-launches-massive-believe-in-wonder-campaign-for-wonder-woman-80th-anniversary/</a><br /><br />POOR CONDITION: Frank & Marilyn Thorne <a href="https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/frank-thorne-red-sonja-legend-obit" rel="noopener">https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/frank-thorne-red-sonja-legend-obit</a><br /><br />LITERATE REVISIT: American Gothic "A Tree Grows in Trinity" <a href="https://www.nbc.com/american-gothic/video/a-tree-grows-in-trinity/4079015" rel="noopener">https://www.nbc.com/american-gothic/video/a-tree-grows-in-trinity/4079015</a><br /><br /><a href="https://tachyonpublications.com/product/of-mice-and-minestrone/" rel="noopener">https://tachyonpublications.com/product/of-mice-and-minestrone/</a><br /><br /><a href="https://www.mulhollandbooks.com/titles/joe-r-lansdale/moon-lake/9780316540643/" rel="noopener">https://www.mulhollandbooks.com/titles/joe-r-lansdale/moon-lake/9780316540643/</a><br /><br /><a href="https://www.cuisinesolutions.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.cuisinesolutions.com/</a><br /><br /><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/bookseries/B00CKCV22Q/ref" rel="noopener">https://www.amazon.com/gp/bookseries/B00CKCV22Q/ref</a>=dp_st_0679451099]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/43876513</guid><pubDate>Sun, 14 Mar 2021 04:51:13 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/43876513/lit_nerds_kasey_lansdale_mix.mp3" length="75777483" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>Patrick Kennedy</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Produced by Grammy award-winner John Carter Cash, Kasey Lansdale is a “Jack of all trades.” From a country blues singer and songwriter to actress and author, the small-town girl from Nacogdoches, Texas dreams big.

Now a Los Angeles, California resident, Lansdale is a regular performer at the famed Hotel Café there in Hollywood. Lansdale’s music has been featured in films such as, Cold in July, starring award-winning actor, Michael C. Hall of Showtimes’ hit series Dexter; IFC Channel, Animal Planet, and the award winning Sundance TV Channel series, Hap and Leonard, where Lansdale can also be spotted as an actress. “As a vocalist, she walks the line between traditional and contemporary sounds throughout. She knocks out some notes that will leave you wondering ‘How did she do that?” said Billboard’s Chuck Dauphin. As an author, Lansdale was first published at the tender age of eight by Random House, and is the author of several short stories and novellas, along with publications from Harper Collins, Titan Books, & others. Lansdale is the editor of assorted anthology collections, including Subterranean Press’ Impossible Monsters. Her new collection, Terror Is Our Business, was lauded by Publisher’s Weekly as “storytelling that delightfully takes on a lighter and sharper edge.” Most recently, her collaboration with her father and brother, The Companion, was adapted to episode 4 of the television remake of Shudder’s Creepshow, produced by Walking Dead producer, Greg Nicotero.
