September 10- Cory Chisel (on location from U of L’s Red Barn!)
Death Won’t Send A Letter, Chisel’s full-length debut for Black Seal Records, is a dark and urgent rock and roll vision. It takes a romantic albeit gutsy stance on the meaning of love and spirituality, as the songs seek to make sense of the world outside and human desires within – reconciling the call of the road and a longing for home, literally and figuratively. With Grammy-winning producer Joe Chiccarelli (The Shins, The White Stripes) at the helm, Cory’s songs have transformed into lush and nuanced recordings that never sacrifice his emotional vulnerability or his rich and unique vocal tone.
The songs on Death Won’t Send A Letter were recorded primarily at Blackbird Studios in Nashville, TN with Chisel’s backing vocalist/keyboard player Adriel Harris and “Little Jack” Lawrence (The Raconteurs, The Dead Weather) on initial tracking. Cory, Adriel and Little Jack were then joined by Jack’s longtime collaborator Patrick Keeler (The Raconteurs, The Greenhornes) on drums. With Patrick and Jack’s driving rhythm section the albums’ sound took on a grittier hue. And in Brendan Benson Cory found a writing and arranging partner that birthed the lead album track “Born Again.” Carl Broemel from My Morning Jacket also contributes on guitar.
We’re taking Live Lunch on location this week for a special broadcast from the Red Barn (#39I on the map) at the University of Louisville! The Red Barn is located on the north side of the Student Activities Center. We suggest you park in the garage on Floyd, south of the center. At 11:45AM we’ll release the seats reserved for WFPK listeners, so get there early. Thanks to the Student Activities Board for sponsoring the broadcast and providing lunch for everyone!
