ERIC CHURCH’S “RECORD YEAR” TAPPED FOR SECOND SINGLE
A 2016 Academy of Country Music Awards top nominee, Eric Church drops his second single “Record Year” from Mr. Misunderstood at Country radio today. The new single namechecks Stevie Wonder’s Songs In The Key of Life, Willie Nelson’s Red Headed Stranger, John Lee Hooker’s One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer among others from Church’s stack of vinyl. Upon the album’s surprise release last November, Rolling Stone Magazine dubbed the new single the “most moving moment” on the widely-lauded album.
Church co-wrote “Record Year” with longtime banjo player and guitarist Jeff Hyde who has previously collaborated on hits such as the three-week No. 1 “Springsteen” (along with Ryan Tyndell) from the ACM and CMA Album of the Year Chief and the anthematic Top 20 “Smoke a Little Smoke” (written by Church and Hyde alongside other bandmate Driver Williams) from 2009’s Carolina, a release that has since been pointed to as a pivotal shift in musical direction for “our greatest working rock star” (Stereogum).

KIRAN LEONARD SINGLE ON SPIN
“On “Secret Police,” the Manchester-born songsmith channels the totemic singer-songwriters that came before him — Rufus Wainwright III, Jeff Buckley, Leonard Cohen — with a voice that trembles as if it’s about to rupture from the weight of his tortured artistry. The song is gorgeously arranged, as well: Starting off with a simple piano figure, Leonard gradually drops in light snares and violins until he builds to an ear-splintering instrumental cacophony worthy of ELO.” –SPIN

DAN SARTAIN ALBUM STREAM
Staring out from the cover with (non-artificially) blackened eye, paranoid android Dan Sartain goes back to the future for ‘Century Plaza’ – a new album of darkly nuanced electro-pop, released via One Little Indian on February 19th.
