Glenn Mercer of The Feelies has a solo album coming out (Wheels in Motion) soon on Pravada Records.

The record features performances by ex-Feelies: Stan Demeski, Vinny DeNunzio, Dave Weckerman, Anton Fier, and Brenda Sauter.

Speaking about the recording, Glenn says: "The record is a very personal and intimate reflection on where I am, where I've been and where I'm going. The best part of the project was the opportunity to re-unite with a few old friends to play music. When I wrote and recorded the songs, I wanted the interplay between the guitar and vocal to be the main focus, building the track from that point."

Check out the songs streaming on his MySpace.

See Glenn this Saturday 4/28 at Magnetic Field in Brooklyn with fellow-ex-Feelie Brenda Sauter's band Wild Carnation, or wait for Glenn's June 23rd show at Maxwell's in Hoboken.

Something like this happened last year in Hoboken too.
