It was followed by Kind Turkey's first vinyl release - a 7" single by Ohio's Wheels On Fire.[3] Wheels On Fire have previously released records with Fat Possum Records. In February 2011 Kind Turkey released Kerry Davis' 4th solo 7" under the Two Tears name entitled "Eat People".[4] Kerry is a notable American musician most known for her work in Red Aunts, The Screws, and Beehive and the Barracudas.
