The New Mastersounds have announced the release of The Nashville Session via Royal Potato Family on April 22. The 10-track collection was multi-tracked live to one-inch tape in a single evening session at Welcome To 1979 studio in Nashville, TN in front of a small studio audience. Following the performance, the recordings were mixed down to quarter-inch stereo tape and then cut direct to vinyl lacquers. There are no guests and no overdubs—essentially The New Mastersounds—pure and unadulterated.
Hitting the studio at the tail end of the band’s Fall/Winter 2015 cross-country U.S. tour when they were at the top of their game musically, they selected material to record from across their 16-plus year career and ten studio albums. The only exception being a fresh take of legendary jazz guitarist Grant Green‘s arrangement of James Brown‘s “In The Middle.”
The Nashville Session will be released as a limited edition, 1000-piece vinyl exclusive pressing. It will not be made available in any other formats until the digital release on May 27. It comes on the heels of last October’s critically acclaimed studio release, Made For Pleasure.
