DOWN (DEVILS HIGHWAY)
Like many bands throughout this pandemic, 2021 saw Black Whiskey
spending more time in the studio writing and collaborating on songs
that would eventually become the band’s debut album.
As the tracks came together, the band began approaching producers to
mix the final choice of tracks for release. Hoping to keep things in
Australia for ease of production the quest to locate quality began.
Finding a producer that was passionate about the endeavours of small
bands & just as interested in taking time with these bands &
their sound, as they were with names, connections & the big money
makers was definitely a learning curve.
The
latest single, 'Down (Devils Highway) is the first offering from the
album & the band for 2022 !. A ballsy riff driven song that retains
the familiar classic Aussie Rock overtones that the band has come to
be known for !
Best
cranked on a set of speakers able to appreciate & handle the punch
delivered by the wall of sound Black Whiskey delivers !
‘Down’
takes us down the road of Bad Women with Bad Attitudes & the Devils
Highway some of us have found ourselves travelling with them.
Added
bonus and a bit of marketing brilliance is the TWO extra tracks you
will get only when you purchase the CD, These are an acoustic version
and would you believe a remix. The boys decided to have a bit of fun
with it, why the hell not.
To
get this distinct Aussie Rock sound that is Black Whiskey, the boys
quickly realised it was a no brainer that the band should work again
with the talented team at Alternator Records and DNA Mastering in the
U.S, the same team that were involved with single 'Wild & Free',
from their EP ‘Rebel’. Wild & Free is still widely heard on many
radio stations & playlists
globally.
Finding its way onto many music charts around the world, this
solidified the decision to send All the tracks for the upcoming album
to mentor & friend, Michael James. With Michael James at the helm
& an involved roll in the production it all came together as
envisaged. Grammy award winning Dave Donnelly of DNA Mastering rounds
out the production of the album, once again giving the new songs a
polished sound.
Down
(Devil's Highway), the first single off the new, as yet untitled album,
sees its release February 4. 2022 will see the release of the album so
watch this space !
Black
Whiskey are here to stay, and their latest offering for 2022, speaks
volumes to prove that rock and roll is not dead, it is very much alive
and well !.
