SINGER-SONGWRITER TO APPEAR ON WUMB EARLIER THAT DAY
FAN PHOTO FROM THE SHOW WILL BE INCLUDED IN ALBUM ARTWORK
WITH SPECIAL GUEST ON VOCALS, WARD HAYDEN FROM BOSTON MUSIC
AWARD-WINNING BAND GIRLS GUNS & GLORY
Fresh from a national tour and performing at the Americana
Music Festival in Nashville, TN, singer-songwriter Amy Black will be recording
a live album at Johnny D's, around the corner from her Davis Square apartment,
on January 4 with her band. The Boston Globe has called her music "deeply
felt," continuing, "From steely murder ballads to tender love songs
that evoke bedrock country tropes, the record is Americana in its broadest
definition. It's rooted in folk and country but with tinges of Southern soul
and blues."
Ward Hayden from the Boston Music Award-winning band Girls
Guns & Glory will sit in on the set. The band is made up of top shelf
Boston-area musicians: Jim Scoppa (Duke Robillard), electric guitar, Russell
Chudnofsky (Lori McKenna, Sara Borges), rhythm guitar; Lorne Entress (producer
of Black's stellar album 'One Time' and drummer for Ronnie Earl), drums; John
Styklunas, bass. Tom Dube of Front Of House Sound, who has worked with Rosanne
Cash, Jackson Browne, Richard Thompson, and Kathleen Edwards, will engineer the
live album.
The audience will have the opportunity to advance purchase
the album (both CD and a download before it's even released) for $5. A group
photo of all who come out will be included in the artwork for the album. Black
plans to release it in the spring and mount a tour behind it.
Black will also appear live on WUMB 91.9FM at noon on
January 4.
