Hellbound Glory :: 01.06.12 :: Jambalaya :: Arcata, CA
Reno, NV-based Hellbound Glory is doing their part to keep country tough n real, honoring stated influences like Bocephus and the Jennings (Waylon and Shooter) while mixing in the energy of primo ass-kickers like Drive-By Truckers and Kid Rock. One spin of their fab new album, Damaged Goods (released November 22, 2011 on Rusty Knuckles) and youre ready to punch a bouncer and raise some h-e-double toothpicks. The band carries this tusslin energy into their live shows, making them a standout in the insurgent XXX country rock movement. Heres a peek of a recent California show last month (and a great live-off-the-floor Hank Jr. cover below gallery), and folks in Ohio, New York and Texas can catch the band in person starting in mid-February (dates here).

NEW ALBUM FOR HIGHER OUT MAY 15

Ryan Montbleau |
Ryan Montbleau broke with tradition on his new album, For Higher (out May 15), leaving behind the comfort of his touring band for a whirlwind series of sessions in New Orleans with some of the city’s best musicians.
Producer Ben Ellman of Galactic assembled an all-star cast–including keyboard/B-3 player Ivan Neville, guitar master Anders Osborne, drummer Simon Lott, and Meters bassist George Porter Jr.–to push Montbleau’s soulful and soaring voice into uncharted territory.
While a few of the album’s 10 tracks were already part of the Ryan Montbleau Band’s ever-growing live repertoire, the majority, including four handpicked cover tunes — stone soul nuggets from Bill Withers, Curtis Mayfield, forgotten supergroup Rhinoceros, and the late Muscle Shoals guitarist Eddie Hinton — came together spontaneously with little prepwork.
“I have a band that I’ve been touring with for years, and usually by the time we head into the studio the songs are pretty well mapped out,” says Montbleau. “This is a totally different record than I’ve ever made.”

2. Heartbreak Road
3. Away We Go
4. Head Above Water
5. Here But I’m Gone
