Ispiratissimo.

Ci spiegherà come intende presentarsi. Se da solo, se con una nuova band, se sono sempre quelli ma cambiando nome. Per fortuna è vivo.

Christopher Owens is delighted to announce the release of his forthcoming second solo album, ‘A New Testament’ via Turnstile on September 29th (September 30th, North America). Available to pre-order (with instant-grat of ‘Nothing More Than Everything To Me’, ‘Stephen‘ and ‘It Comes Back To You‘) on iTunes now.

To accompany the album’s first single ‘Nothing More Than Everything To Me’, Christopher has also unveiled this brand new music video, directed by Max Minghella.

Of the album, Christopher said:

“Every new album is a new testament.

It’s a testament to honest, earnest, simple songwriting—”three chords and the truth”, songs inspired by the fundamentals of American music—Gospel, Country, R&B, picking the songs for this record was exciting enough for me, because they’re some of the ones that speak to me the most, of my memories, real life experiences, my battles, my victories. But hearing the record actually take form and come to life was even more exciting than I imagined. The new ground we worked towards—playing with Ed Efira on pedal steel for the first time, all of it was an amazing experience.

This album is nothing if not a testament to the power of music, and to the musicians that made it—John Anderson, Darren Weiss, Makeda—who all helped make Father Son Holy Ghost what it is, Danny Eisenberg—who was introduced to me during the sessions for Broken Dreams Club and played again on Father Son Holy Ghost, this is now our third record together, and I think that’s what shows.

It’s also my third record with Doug Boehm, who’s always made me feel I had the help I needed when I needed it, and the support I needed when I felt strongly about sticking to an idea.

I could go on and on about all these people—David Sutton, who I met recording Lysandre, just watching him play is such a pleasure. It’s the intensity with which all these musicians approach the songs that makes me so excited and proud to play with them again and again.

And the excitement, the joy, the sincerity, the craftsmanship, it’s all captured on this record.
A new testament.”

intervista a Pitchfork che arriva sempre prima con lui, anche se poi Lysandre non è che gliel'ha proprio spinto, anzi.

Certo che se questo fa il modello per Yves Saint Laurent, allora anch'io.

La cosa preoccupante per noi che ascoltiamo e valutiamo solo la musica è che dice di essere felice, senza droga, senza bad habits. Non lo so, spero che questo non porti a robetta senza profondità. In caso sarebbe un'ulteriore argomentazione per chi sostiene che
[spoiler]"See, I think drugs have done some good things for us, I really do. And if you don’t believe drugs have done good things for us, do me a favor; go home tonight, take all your albums, all your tapes, and all your CD’s and burn em’. 'Cause you don't want the musicians who’ve made all that great music that’s enhanced your lives throughout the years?..
Rrrrrrrreal fuckin' high on drugs."

Ridategli la bamba in caso. Ma aspettiamo per dirlo.

Secondo me senza JR White è dura, anche se non scriveva. Era uno che metteva in piedi le cose come dovevano essere.

lunga intervista, un'altra
speriamo non sia come l'altra volta con Lysandre, che dopo l'uscita nessuno se l'è più cagato.

guardatelo comunque, come lo truccano, come lo conciano... gliele fanno di tutti i colori. Guardatelo. Riescono a farlo sembrare un figone. Era una macchietta, era quello del video di Honey Bunny e di Lust for Life, ora non si sa più chi è veramente. Gli possono aver messo anche una pila nel sedere per quanto ne so, non mi stupisco più di niente.

Mi auguro di sbagliarmi perché gli ho voluto tanto bene a quello dei Girls

questa è la conclusione del nuovo. Magari con altro arrangiamento appare migliore
