Search - Eric Brace & Peter Cooper :: The Comeback Album

Three years after their last duo release, Eric Brace & Peter Cooper return with The Comeback Album, a sparkling set that marries nine self-penned compositions with gems from Tom T. Hall, Karl Straub, and David Halley. Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Duane Eddy and Bluegrass Hall of Famer Mac Wiseman join Brace, Cooper, and country music torchbearer Marty Stuart for a revival of Hall s Mad, and a band of players including Richard Bennett, Jen Gunderman, Rory Hoffman, Paul Griffith, David Jacques, Fats Kaplin, multi-instrumentalist/engineer Thomm Jutz and legendary steel guitarist Lloyd Green (the Byrds, Paul McCartney, Don Williams, etc.) provide the bed for Brace & Cooper s splendid harmonies and deft storytelling. The Comeback Album features scenes from a Johnson City jail, a Spartanburg slum, and the back ends of a few busted love affairs. It s populated by fools, sages, tattooed sailors, victims and perpetrators, and for listeners, it s a chance to come back and hear one of Americana music s most intriguing and inventive acts.
