De Amerikaanse classic rockband Rival Sons werkt in de LCS Studios in Nashville aan een nieuw album. De band is sinds het begin van januari hard bezig om nieuwe nummers te schrijven en op te nemen. Wederom zit producer Dave Cobb achter de knoppen en met nieuwe bassist Dave Beste is de band na zes weken klaar met de opnames.

Dave Cobb: “This record the boys seem to have a fire in them! With Dave Beste in tow, we’ve never had this much time to make a record. During the previous albums, which were twenty days each, we had a room full of whiskey bottles at the end; this time, which is six weeks, there should be enough to fill a football field!”

Dave Beste: “After we played Nashville last summer, the guys asked me to join them in the studio to make this new record. And I said, ‘Of course!’. It’s an involved process, at times quite intense, but going well – all of us are excited with what we have so far and although there’s still a long way to go, spirits are high. I’m looking forward to this newest Rival Sons effort being released and the band getting back on the road soon.”

Jay Buchanan: “Shoulder to the wheel here in Nashville. I watched a bird in a tree yesterday and she told me this will be the record that helps us to finally win over the highly coveted deaf market.”
