Description
New Orleans’ best-kept secret, Jon Cleary, has a new record in the pipeline. His dream team of musicians has been recruited for an album of original compositions that he feels strongly will prove to be his best album yet. The tracks were recorded over several days deep in the bayou country of Louisiana and subsequently honed in his studio in the old Bywater district of New Orleans. Made in collaboration with multi Grammy winning producer John Porter (B.B. King, Keb Mo, Ryan Adams, Los Lonely boys) each of the carefully crafted songs is a delicate balance of the smooth and the rough; instantly memorable hooks over a set of sophisticated and soulful arrangements. A blend of musical intelligence with direct, accessible pop simplicity that draws from the tradition and yet is distinctively separate from it, these songs represent the many aspects of Cleary’s musical personality as a multi instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter.
