Search - Tim Easton :: Not Cool

2013 album from the Nashville-based singer/songwriter. Not Cool is a tightly wound gearbox of tunes that showcase his influences, including Doc Watson, Elmore James, and Keith Richards. A compelling live performer, Easton recently re-located from Joshua Tree, California, to Nashville, where he recorded Not Cool in five hard-charging days with producers and long time collaborative team Robin Eaton and Brad Jones. The concept for Not Cool came to Easton as he was getting acquainted with his new, adopted hometown. ''The back stage door of the Ryman Auditorium is directly across the alley from the back door to Robert's Western World on Lower Broadway. I walked in the bar one night and heard the locals killing it. JD Simo on guitar and Joe Fick on upright bass. It was just the modern, yet vintage sound that I wanted and I simply asked them to play on my record.''
