WATCH/HEAR THE BRAND NEW SINGLE “UNDERGROUND BLUES” + ROLLING STONE + UNDERGROUND GARAGE’S “COOLEST SONGS IN THE WORLD” & MORE
Hey gang,
We have a brand new single and video out today called “Underground Blues”. It’s another track from the upcoming album Nothing Pressing.
This is one of two songs that were not recorded at Cowboy Junkies studio but recorded at home on my old early 80s Tascam 4-track tape recorder (fan of Springsteen’s Nebraska? He used the model right before to record that album). It just features me, myself and I on guitars and vocals. Mike Timmins (producer) loved the feel and sound of this recording and we didn’t want to re-record and chase that sound when we had it already there on tape. It’s pretty wild, you can save/download the single here: https://ffm.to/jlub
Check out the official video for “Underground Blues”, beautifully animated by Brittany Brooks (SUBSCRIBE to the channel while you’re there too):https://youtu.be/zig-O53rD0M
In other news,
I’m in the current issue of Rolling Stone Germany with an interview regarding how I’ve survived artistically during the pandemic. We touch on the new album as well as my activities the last couple of years with releasing my first book of poetry, the surprise album Songs From The Apartment, exclusive concert film, singles on more. If you’re in Germany, the magazine is on stands, in shops and available to order now.
I also like to say thank you to Bill Kelly and Steven Van Zandt for adding the previous single “Have You Ever Been Happy?” to ‘Coolest Songs In The World’ SiriusXM channel, the sister station to ‘Little Steven’s Underground Garage’. Listen for the single on Bill Kelly’s Underground Garage show very soon!
