专辑介绍
If Justin Rutledge’s previous releases explored the dark and quiet corners of the heart, his new album, The Early Widows, is a work of illumination. From the opening moments of the emphatic”Be A Man, doubled drums carry a newfound momentum forward, breaking and intensifying like daybreak. The rallying drum roll at the beginning of the “Heart of a River,calls for metropolitan migration; the blustery, momentous climb of “Snowmen” responds with a sense of hibernation. Rutledge offers a collection of songs that look outward and inward, at once weighty and weightless. Like sunlight pushing through the crack in a doorway, The Early Widows is a study in light and shadow. The album comes out of collaboration with renowned author Michael Ondaatje; the songs are loosely based on Ondaatje’s novel Divisadero. “”Be A Man”" was co-written with Ondaatje. Anchored in Rutledge’s meticulously crafted lyrics, the songs swell outwards, buoyed by commanding performances from band members Burke Carroll, Blake Manning, David Baxter, and Bazil Donovan. Producer Hawksley Workman (Hey Rosetta, Tegan & Sara, Serena Ryder, Jeremy Fisher) expanded the country-style sound with the added energy of drummer Gary Craig and the explosive vocals of gospel singers (The Faith Choral), offset by whiskery violin courtesy of Jesse Zubot.
