I absolutely love where we are at with the label these days. We have what I consider to be some of the greatest new voices in Americana and our artists not only tour together, but in the case of the Austin Lucas with the Takers 7_, they also record together. Soon after Austin finished recording his modern day masterpiece, “Somebody Loves You”, he flew down to Florida to see family, play a few shows, and hang out with friends. During these days, he hooked up with Suburban Home’s newest band, the Takers, to record 4 songs at Crescendo Studios (the same session Austin recorded his Under the Influence track, “To Daddy”). The Takers, for those of you who don’t know, are Suburban Home’s Outlaw Country band. The Takers call Gainesville, Florida home, have members of Whiskey and Co, and after having put out an incredible debut 7_, have recently finished recording their debut album for us. The 4 song 7_ finds Austin performing on the Takers’ tracks and the Takers performing on Austin’s tracks and the session might fool you into thinking that the guys have been playing together for years. There are 2 covers and 2 originals.
The 7_ will be initially pressed out of an edition of 500 copies on Frosty Blue vinyl. Mp3 Download coupon will be included.
