About This Item
Andrew Gabbard has announced the of his sophomore effort as a solo artist, Cedar City Sweetheart. The songs evoke a familiar feel for fans of his debut album, but new instrumentation and country-leaning lyrics give us a glimpse of another side of Andrew. InchI love when a rock band makes a country album, Inch he explained, pointing to The Byrds as a major source of inspiration. Andrew played every instrument on his solo debut, Homemade. This time around, he called on some local musicians to add color. InchOriginally, I didn't have access to much recording equipment. I tracked my parts with an iPhone. My friends recorded their parts professionally, so I was able to piece it together and take another stab at recording the core of each song.Inch The final product is a better sounding, polished group of songs that fit together to make a country album.The songs were written over the course of several years, but they're all very fresh in Andrew's mind. InchI can remember a specific moment from writing each one of these tunes. They're simple songs that came naturally to me.Inch Even though Andrew has written and contributed on countless albums over the years, this one truly feels like his second.
