Acclaimed, award-winning artist Bahamas (a.k.a. Afie Jurvanen) will release his new album Bootcut on September 15th via Brushfire Records (pre-order HERE). Recorded in Nashville, TN at the legendary Sound Emporium studio, Bootcut seamlessly combines Bahamas’ signature, genre-bending blend of quirky pop, R&B, folk, soul, alternative, and dashes of clever wit with Jurvanen’s love of classic country music. Listen to three new tracks below…
With Grammy-nominated producer/engineer Robbie Lackritz (Feist, Jack Johnson, Alvvays) and Dan Knobler (Allison Russell, Rodney Crowell) at the helm, Jurvanen enlisted a who’s who of Nashville’s finest to record Bootcut, including country icon/guitarist Vince Gill, harmonica wizard Mickey Raphael (Willie Nelson), pedal steel maestro Russ Pahl (Kenny Rogers, Sturgill Simpson), legendary bassist Dave Roe (Johnny Cash, Dwight Yoakum, Jerry Reed), mandolin master Sam Bush (Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt), keyboardist Jen Gunderman (The Jayhawks), and drummer Jon Radford (Brendan Benson, Nikki Lane).
