New Music: Hoodoo Gurus, Band of Horses, Jackie Bristow, Hank Williams

Eagerly-awaited returns from Australia's Hoodoo Gurus, American rock troupe Band of Horses and Nashville-based songstress Jackie Bristow are among the new essential titles featured in my column this week. There is also a new collection of extraordinary recordings by groundbreaking country music icon Hank Williams available now.

Artist: Hoodoo Gurus

Title: Chariot of the Gods (Big Time Phonographic Record Co/EMI Records)

Tell me more: More than a decade since the release of their last album (2010's Purity of Essence) and first new music since 2014 (the EP Gravy Train), Hoodoo Gurus has returned with the brilliant Chariot of the Gods. Formed in Sydney, Australia back in 1981, Chariot of the Gods finds the quartet tearing artfully through more than a dozen outstanding originals —  utterly proving their literate and unique rock approach is fully relevant in 2022. The thundering "World of Pain," confessional "Was I Supposed To Care?," punk-styled "Hang With The Girls" and introspective "My Imaginary Friend" are early standouts on the disc. The melodic '60s-tinged "Equinox," blistering "I Come From Your Future," soaring "Carry On" and sparkling "Settle Down" keep the magic soaring on the last half of the album. Let's hope that we hear more from Dave Faulkner (vocals, guitars), Brad Shepherd (vocals, guitar), Rick Grossman (vocals, bass) and Nik Reith (drums) soon. Information: hoodoogurus.net.  

Artist: Band of Horses

Title: Things Are Great (BMG)

You might like if you enjoy: Band of Horses, Neil Young, The War on Drugs

Tell me more: While the title of Band of Horses' long awaited new album  Things Are Great  is seemingly at odds with the world around us — just think of soaring inflation, Russia's terrifying war against the innocent people of Ukraine and the continuing death toll from the global pandemic — there is no denying the marvelous experience at being immersed in the band's first new studio album since 2016. Lead singer Ben Bridwell and company have crafted another modern day masterwork; this is an album that recalls the expansive joy of 2010's Infinite Arms. The parade of enthralling originals on Things Are Great includes the soaring "Warning Signs" and "Lights," ascending "Crutch," luxurious "Tragedy of the Commons," inspired "In Need of Repair" and dreamy "Aftermath."

Artist: Jackie Bristow

Title: Outsider (Mesa Bluemoon Recordings)

You might like if you enjoy: Alice Wallace, Darling West, Kasey Chambers

Tell me more: Released on March 4, Outsider is Nashville-based singer-songwriter Jackie Bristow's first new album in six years. Blending rock, pop, Americana and country music across a dozen delightful tracks, Bristow's wonderful soprano is positioned amidst a backdrop of nuanced acoustic and electric guitars, banjo and pedal steel, and even strings and horns. The contributions of Bristow's longtime musical partner Mark Punch (Kasey Chambers, Tim Finn) along with a number of top-tier singers and musicians further elevate the project. The material ranges from the smooth "Livin' For Love," lovely "Shakin' My Bones" (the latter bolstered by Norwegian singers Tor Egil Kraken and Mari Kraken of Darling West fame) and bewitching "Without You" to the Southern soul-drenched "Tennessee" and the expansive jewel "Never To Late."

Artist: Hank Williams

Title: I'm Gonna Sing: The Mother's Best Gospel Radio Recordings (BMG)

You might like if you enjoy: Hank Williams, Hank Snow, Gram Parsons

Tell me more: The new Hank Williams collection I'm Gonna Sing: The Mother's Best Gospel Radio Recordings marks a perfect chance to discover (or rediscover) the art of Hank Williams. Although he died when he was only 29, Williams remains one of the most significant and influential American singer-songwriters of the 20th century even nearly 70 years after his passing. The track listing on I'm Gonna Sing never falters, with harmonies-adorned pre-20th century hymns ("I Am Bound For The Promised Land," "That Beautiful Home," "The Blind Child's Prayer"), early 20th century hymnals ("The Old Country Church," "I'll Fly Away," "I'll Have A New Life"), black gospel ("When God Dips His Love In My Heart," "When the Saints Go Marching In," "Precious Lord, Take My Hand"), 1940s material ("Thy Burdens Are Greater Than Mine," "Searching For A Soldier's Grave") and Williams originals ("I Saw the Light," "Jesus Died For Me," "I'm Gonna Sing," "Jesus Remembered Me") collectively showcasing Williams' deep and life-long connection with gospel and religious music. The audio 2-CD digipak version reviewed here comes with an informative 12-page booklet that includes detailed liner notes by Williams biographer Colin Escott. The set has also been released via a three-LP triple-gatefold album pressed on 140g vinyl, marking the first time these recordings have been issued on vinyl. The 40 tracks recorded at the dawn of the 1950s sound fantastic; the collection was produced by Cheryl Pawelski while the recordings were restored and mastered by Michael Graves.

Hoodoo Gurus ready new album 'Chariot of the Gods' for March 11, 2022 release

Here is the official media release announcing Hoodoo Gurus' forthcoming new album coming March 11...Robert Kinsler

Hoodoo Gurus are set to release their new album 'Chariot of the Gods' on Friday, March 11, 2022

Check out the band's amazing advance track "Carry On" HERE

SYDNEY, Australia — Despite the global COVID-19 pandemic, Hoodoo Gurus had a busy 2021, preparing for the release of their 10th studio album, Chariot of the Gods. The album is due from Big Time Phonograph Record Co./EMI on Friday, March 11, 2022.  Chariot of the Gods is classic Gurus — 14 bangers (17 on the deluxe double-vinyl edition) featuring the relatable lyricism and peerless songwriting placed in a distinctively Australian context that the band are renowned for.

 

Lead singer Dave Faulkner describes the recording of Chariot of the Gods: “The last two years have been frustrating and nerve-racking for everyone, but for the Hoodoo Gurus, this dark cloud has had a silver lining. Forced to rely on ourselves instead of the outside world for validation, there has been a creative rebirth within the band that has resulted in a new album. Most important of all, the musical bonds between the four of us have never been stronger. When the discussions are all about which songs we’re sad about having to leave off the record, that's a damn good sign. I'm tellin’ ya, folks, we’ve got a real spring in our step right now.” 

 

Each of the album’s songs tells a different story. The album’s lead single is “Carry On,” an anthem celebrating resilience and tenacity (damn the torpedoes!).  There’s the explosive glam-stomper “World of Pain.” “Hung Out to Dry,” a politically incorrect ode to a former orange President, is only available on the limited-release double vinyl version. “Get Out of Dodge” is a song to all the non-conformists out there — anyone who feels outnumbered and can’t fit in with the unreasonable expectations of the crowd, and the punk-snarling stage-setter “Answered Prayers.” 

 

Celebrating their 40th anniversary (since forming in 1981), Hoodoo Gurus boast nine ARIA (Australian Record Industry Association) Top 20 albums, nine ARIA Top 40 singles, a host of multi-platinum albums and an induction into the ARIA Hall of Fame. They hold a singular place in Australian and international rock ’n’ roll history. Comprising members of seminal ’70s Auspunk outfits including the Victims, the Scientists, the Fun Things, Radio Birdman and the Divinyls, the band were unrepentant garage rockers whose colorful personality and pop culture smarts took them to the top of the charts at home and to the forefront of international garage/alternative /power pop movements of the mid-’80s, accepted as friends and contemporaries by bands ranging from the Bangles to the Fleshtones and the Flamin' Groovies to Redd Kross. The band played to packed houses across Brazil, Europe and America, making their way to the top of the U.S. College and Alternative charts on multiple occasions.

 

Hoodoo Gurus are Dave Faulkner (vocals, guitars), Brad Shepherd (vocals, guitars), Rick Grossman (vocals, bass) and Nik Reith (drums).

 Plenty of good news from across the sonic universe for music fans...Robert Kinsler

After 10 Years, Hoodoo Gurus ready new album

LP preceded by new single "World of Pain"

Check out the video HERE

Hoodoo Gurus take the reins of year 2021 — their 40th year as a band — to embark upon one of their most eventful years to date. Their new album (as yet untitled), due in the final quarter of the year, is the first full-length recording with relative new recruit to the band’s lineup. 

 

This year also marks the release a new Hoodoo Gurus single, the explosive glam stomper “World of Pain,” available now.

 

Hoodoo Gurus founder, singer and chief songwriter Dave Faulkner explains that the song “details the misadventures of a night on the town, beginning with a drunken altercation with another punter (‘Your fist smashes my face/Chairs fly all over the place/What a sorry sight’) and concludes with our hapless narrator waking up in bed fully dressed, in the throes of a hangover, all the while trying to remember where he last saw his cell phone.” 

 

That’s a world of pain indeed. Mind you, this is a fictional story. Faulkner is not necessarily saying these things happened to him but, cumulatively, he may have learned a thing or two about coming off the worse for wear after a big night.

 

Musically, “World of Pain” marries a stomping glam-rock verse to a boozy barroom-blues chorus, proving the Hoodoo Gurus have lost none of their edge. The Gurus give listeners all of the thrills of a night on the town with none of the unwelcome aftereffects. Cheers to that!

 

The long-awaited album, their first in more than a decade (the longest interval between Hoodoo Gurus albums in their history), alongside their return to the stage, makes for a year for which the band is full of a palpable and infectious level of determination, drive and spirit, evident in their current state of mind.

 

As Faulkner explains: “The last 12 months have been frustrating and nerve-racking for everyone, but for the Hoodoo Gurus this dark cloud has had a silver lining. Forced to rely on ourselves instead of the outside world for validation, there has been a creative rebirth within the band that has resulted in a string of singles and a new album. Most important of all, the musical bonds between the four of us have never been stronger. When the discussions are all about which songs we’re sad about having to leave off the record, that’s a damn good sign. I’m tellin’ ya, folks, we’ve got a real spring in our step right now.”

 

The event-filled calendar for Hoodoo Gurus in 2021 comes after the release of three tracks in the last 18 months. The punk-snarl of “Answered Prayers” emerged in late 2019, followed by the politically charged “Hung Out to Dry” in July 2020 and a slice of soaring power pop in the form of “Get Out of Dodge” in October of last year. 

 

Since their formation in 1981, Hoodoo Gurus earned nine ARIA (Australian Recording Industry Association) Top 20 albums, nine ARIA Top 40 singles, and a host of multi-platinum albums. The band’s evocative and relatable lyricism, peerless song writing — with a hint of punk attitude — placed in a distinctively Australian context have resulted in a balance of critical success and enduring mainstream appeal for 40 years. Among the many artists who have publicly namechecked Hoodoo Gurus are Steve Van Zandt, Manic Street Preachers and Courtney Love, and they’ve been perpetually influential to generations of artists who’ve arrived after them.

Few other groups have toured as comprehensively, achieved such an enduring reputation over successive generations, enjoyed such loyalty from fans and maintained such high currency for their work, both within Australia and abroad.

 

The enduring legacy of Hoodoo Gurus is reflected in sell-out tours, the numerous tracks that are indisputable staples of radio, inclusion in “best album” countdowns, even having songs played at weddings and funerals — these are just some of the barometers of the strong legacy the band enjoys. 

As elder statesmen of Australian rock ’n' roll, the Hoodoo Gurus are held in the same high esteem by their peers as they are by their fans. In 2007, the group was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame. Two years earlier, a cross-section of the Australian music community paid the band the ultimate homage by lovingly producing a tribute album of Gurus covers entitled Stoneage Cameos. 

Through their chart-topping successes throughout the ’80s and ’90s, their international triumphs and countless sold-out Australian tours, from their 1998-2003 break-up through to their comeback, Hoodoo Gurus have been — and remain — one of the most popular and successful musical acts Australia has ever produced.

“When we first started as a band, we shared a two bedroom apartment where ‘Our House’ was played so much it became like a mantra of unity and connection to each other, as we discovered what we wanted to do within our music. To say it’s an honor to now be asked to cover that very same song is an understatement. Happy 50th anniversary you legends! Déjà Vu Forever!” – The Head and The Heart

LOS ANGELES – The Head and The Heart, coming off their acclaimed fourth album Living Mirage, have released a transcendent new cover version of the Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young’s “Our House,” available today digitally.

Jade Bird

Announces her new album: 

Different Kinds of Light

Due for release on August 13th via Glassnote Records

(pre-order HERE)

+

Releases Title Track

(Listen HERE)

The video for title track can be viewed HERE

Having teased her new album with a series of taster singles and live performances, acclaimed young British singer-songwriter Jade Bird has today confirmed details of the release. Different Kinds of Light is Jade’s sophomore record and will be released via Glassnote Records on August 13th, 2021. 

 

In advance of confirming details of the new album, Jade released  "Headstart" and  "Houdini" at the back end of 2020, followed more recently by the BBC Radio 1 play-listed single "Open up the heavens" and the live EP RCA Studio A Sessions, taken from her live stream show from the iconic studios earlier this year which once again showcased her natural talent, uncompromising sense of self and enviable musicianship to the world. Jade also recently played a sold out, socially-distanced US tour and turned in a brilliant performance of "Headstart" for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (HERE).

 

The RCA studios in Nashville and the americana/alt-rock music scene feature heavily in the life cycle of this new album as that’s where Jade majoritively recorded ‘Different Kinds of Light’ with powerhouse producer Dave Cobb (John Prine, Lady Gaga). Over the last 2 years, Jade has organically become part of a community of American songwriters and artists, and the likes of Jason Isbell, Sheryl Crow and Jade’s friend and collaborator, Brandi Carlile have all taken the British voice firmly under their wing.

 

Jade Bird’s self-titled debut album was received with much critical acclaim when it was released in 2019. Even as a first offering from the then 21 year old, the album helped set the bar for female musicianship in the current age, carried along by Jades mature and sharply observed narrative vignettes of relationships, divorce and everything in between. With this new album, Jade has grown, she’s travelled the world, collected stories, met fascinating new people, fathomed her own emotions and settled in Austin amongst a new and empowering musical family who showed her that a happier, more holistic and sustainable way of working was possible. This journey has helped her see love and relationships in a new light from her teenage self growing up in the UK. It’s been a gateway to self-discovery and an untangling of held onto experience. 

 

On the record Jade says "Different Kinds of Light at its most basic is about falling in love and at its most complex, the chaos of trying to get away from your past. I’ve written about fictional characters, about myself and people who don’t exist, or at least only exist in my mind, memory and imagination.

 

This record started in Japan, a small getaway from a busy year. We took it to Mexico, to Nashville and to upstate New York adding pieces of songs along the way until it became the different phases of who I am, what my relationship is and what my relationship to other people has become.

 

It’s been a big exploration through evenings and mornings spent under strange skies. With Different Kinds of Light came different kinds of clarity in my life."

 

For Jade, it’s always been important to stay connected to the music that she had written (as always), not capitalising on momentum or anyone else’s idea of a career plan. She had a taste of the hype cycle, making the BBC’s 2018 Sound Of… poll and being tipped everywhere from Vogue to Rolling Stone. Her debut album arrived a year later. Despite those early garlands, she didn’t become an overnight success. “I was really glad,” she says. “Musically I was not ready. Lyrically I was not ready. And mentally I was not ready.” Nevertheless, ‘Jade Bird’ received plaudits from the likes of Pitchfork and NPR. And it showed Jade, an obsessive at bettering her craft, how she wanted to build on the foundations she had laid.

 

If her debut reflected on “literally every male family member being absent, present, absent, present”, she says, ‘Different Kinds of Light’ reflects on what it means to stay, to love, to allow yourself to be loved. It’s about “being with somebody who you adore more than the whole world that hasn’t got the foundations to believe in themselves,” she says. “Hasn’t had people supporting them in a way that their potential can be realised, ‘cause they’ve been crippled by the people or environments that surround them.”

 

Jade translated these conflicted emotional states into sharply observed narrative vignettes that show her flair as a storyteller: the guy oblivious to what’s in front of him, the escape artist who confesses to being “asleep at the wheel my whole damn life”; the wastrel burning through their promise. “If I had a penny for all your potential, I’d be left drowning in my mouthful of metal,” Jade sings on Now Is the Time. It speaks to how quickly her writing has matured from the more polemical storytelling of her debut. “When you’re young, you sit in a chaos of emotions and desperately try to write out of it,” says Jade, who’s still only 23. “But when you’re older, you work out what’s affected you and why more clearly. It’s amazing what two years can do: it’s like you’re writing as you’re watching instead of writing to see.” 

 

In the studio with Dave Cobb, the two let Jade’s sound find its groove, joining tough 90s alt-rock and the melodicism of Blur and Oasis at their sweetest to the taut rattle of Iggy Pop’s The Passenger. “That rock element that I’ve been missing and deeply love,” is how Jade describes it. “If I’m in the car, that’s what I put on.” There’s also the spirit of Fleetwood Mac’s pop epics. Stevie Nicks’ Storms inspired Different Kinds of Light’s title track, written in summer 2019 while Jade toured the US with Jason Isbell and Father John Misty. “It says so much: ‘did not deal with the road’, ‘I have always been a storm’. There's so much in that record that breaks my whole being,” she says, melting. 

 

Any trepidation Jade might have felt about her profession on her debut album has now dissipated. “I never felt like I could call myself an artist – like, we’ll see. Whereas I know that’s my occupation now. That’s who I am, and that’s incredibly reassuring.” 

 

Jade Bird remains one of the most individual and exciting female voices out there. With Different Kinds of Light we find her cool, calm and collected - confidently striding ahead into her sure-to-be enthralling next chapter of her life and music.

2CELLOS RELEASE HAUNTING RENDITION OF

IMAGINE DRAGONS’ “DEMONS”

 

MARKS THE SECOND SINGLE & VIDEO RELEASE

FROM THE DUO IN 2021

 

GET THE SINGLE HERE; WATCH THE VIDEO HERE

New York, NY (May 21, 2021) – Croatian duo Luka Šulić and HAUSER of 2CELLOS are back with a new single and video, a beguiling cover ofImagine Dragons’ hit song, “Demons,” available today via Sony Music Masterworks. This rendition is the second release from the pair in 2021 to celebrate their 10-year-anniversary.

 

Filmed in a mysterious bunker in Istria, Croatia, the video for “Demons” begins with an ominous door in the middle of a forest. As the strings on the track continue to build in a hauntingly beautiful way, Hauser enters the frame, and takes viewers on a journey into the unknown. Luka and HAUSER see themselves on their cellos as they burst through each verse, the chorus, and the bridge. The combination of the visuals and the track is a cinematic, suspenseful, and soul-stirring experience.  

 

Purchase and stream “Demons” here.

“We tried to simplify the arrangement without losing the power of the song,” said 2CELLOS. “We wanted to make sure it was a 2CELLOS arrangement without adding too much. It’s the perfect example of a combination of the emotional, beautiful, and powerful at the same time. It’s the nature of what we do.”

 

2CELLOS is the eclectic, international sensation comprised of two classically trained cellists who reached video viral fame on YouTube from their 2011 rendition of Michael Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal.” The pair, Luka Šulić and HAUSER, have since created a name for themselves with their electric and dynamic playing style. Together, 2CELLOS have amassed a staggering 1.3 billion YouTube views, 5.5 million YouTube subscribers, 1 billion streams, and have sold nearly 1 million tickets. 2CELLOS have taken the cello to unimagined heights as their signature style breaks down the boundaries between genres of music, from classical and film music, to pop and rock. Known for their electric live performances, 2CELLOS have sold out shows across the globe at historic venues including New York City’s Radio City Music Hall, London’s Royal Albert Hall and the Sydney Opera House. The duo has performed alongside musical greats Steven Tyler, Andrea Bocelli, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Queens of the Stone Age and George Michael, to name a few, and was hand-picked by Sir Elton John to perform both as an opener as well as part of the iconic singer’s live band. 2CELLOS are celebrating their 10^th anniversary this year, and are working hard to continue reaching new stratospheres.
