Overview
Release Date:10/06/2017;Notes:Vinyl LP pressing. 2017 release, Joseph Childress's second album following his 2013 collection of home recorded demos, The Rebirths. The tracks on this self-titled album are borne from his adventures throughout the West: working on a cattle ranch in Wyoming, riding trains and living out of his car. His poignant lyrics about loneliness and the western landscape are right at home with a stronger country sound that defines itself on the record's opening track "My Land." Childress recorded in Portland with veteran Americana musician and producer Mike Coykendall, known for his work with M. Ward, Bright Eyes, Jolie Holland, She & Him and Old Joe Clarks. He began with tracking guitar and vocals solo. Childress's romantic despair and cautious optimism are a snapshot of a modern journeyman, a man who is confronting the myths of the West while attempting to create his own. Coykendall's production, with the mixing assistance of Chris Arnold (The American Opry) and mastering by Weasel Walter (The Flying Luttenbachers), clears a spot among the rafters of an old barn deep in the Oregon night, allowing witness to Childress and his band playing for no one but themselves.;Track List:1. My Land;2. Footsteps;3. White Castle Creek Mother;4. Whispering Tide;5. Leaving the Barren Ground;6. I Am the Dust;7. 11 Mile Canyon;8. 10000 Horses;9. Virginia Bound;10. Rebirths
