Paul Kelly may not be a household name here in America, but over the course of more than forty years the Australian singer-songwriter and musician has been nothing short of prolific. Numerous awards and a genre-crossing body of work has earned Paul Kelly the status of living legend, which is exactly why his upcoming release is well worthy of your attention. The Merri Soul Sessions hits the U.S. on January 27th and sees Kelly collaborating with a slew of talented musicians and singers to create eleven finely crafted and richly textured songs that are simultaneously soulful, rootsy, and rocking. Most importantly, Kelly’s work is as much about the vocalists and musicians being featured as it is about his own arrangements. If there is any album to give you hope about the coming wave of 2015 releases, it’s Paul Kelly’s The Merri Soul Sessions. That’s why we’re excited to present the exclusive premiere of one of the album’s standout tracks, “Righteous Woman”…
