Son Volt - Honky Tonk

NEW VINYL LP ON ROUNDER 2013.

DELUXE GATEFOLD COVER AND DOWNLOAD CODE.

Honky Tonk is Son Volt's sixth studio album and the highly anticipated follow-up to 2009’s critically lauded American Central Dust. The album features eleven new Son Volt songs that are inspired by the classic honky tonk sound of Bakersfield. Bandleader Jay Farrar observes, “Honky tonk music is about heartache, heartbreak, the road.” He reflects that as he wrote and recorded the songs so deeply steeped in tradition, “I wanted these songs to sound more contemporary and modern. There was no strict adherence to methodology of the past. You never want to be a nostalgia act.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Son_Volt
