Description
Sarah Shook's 2012 debut EP, pressed on vinyl for the first time.180-gram heavyweight marbled copper vinyl with updated artwork and digital download code.A decade ago, a refreshingly singular and rebellious young voice was starting to seep from the cracks in the floors and echo through the speakers in the walls of the cinder-block dive bars of the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill region of North Carolina. The voice was that of an early-20-something Sarah Shook, who had emerged from a musically sheltered upbringing with a teenage self-educated crash course informed by classic Country & Western and punk and indie rock records. For those lucky enough to catch her in this iteration, it was obvious that Sarah Shook was on the path to an incendiary vision of country music. Even in this early stage of her career, Shook's signature brand of country music-wry and irreverent, high and lonesome-sent up the smoke signals for a much-needed alternative to the feigned authenticity of middle-of-the-road "Americana" singer-songwriters.
After much demand from Disarmers die-hards, and nudging along by admirers at Bloodshot, Seven can now be heard in its deserved glory for the first time on vinyl. A rough-and-ready seven-song chronicle of a band putting down their roots, but foreshadowing realized greatness. Even in this early stage of her career, Shook's signature brand of country music-wry and irreverent, high and lonesome-sent up the smoke signals for a much-needed alternative to the feigned-authenticity of middle-of-the-road "Americana" singer-songwriters.
