Following his September show at London’s Jazz Café, soul troubadour Cody ChesnuTT has announced further UK live dates for Spring 2013.
Universally acclaimed for his edgy, sprawling Shortlist Prize nominated 2002 debut, ‘The Headphone Masterpiece’, Cody ChesnuTT’s frank, socially conscious songs set the bar for what modern soul music can look and sound like: On every level – rhythm, song, subject matter and spirit.
Latest album ‘Landing On A Hundred’, released in October, delivers massively. It’s message upbeat even as it reflects upon troubled times. Says Cody: “This body of work is extremely meaningful to me - it represents the journey I have been on since I last released an album. Words cannot describe or express how excited I am about this music.”
The title is a reference to the slang saying, 'Keeping It One Hundred,' or telling the whole truth, and for lovers of true blue Southern soul this new album is a must-have — the rhythm tracks recorded with a ten-piece band in Memphis-based Royal Studios, the sonic birthplace of some of the deepest works by soul and blues luminaries like Al Green, Buddy Guy and Ike & Tina Turner. “The original tracks were cut on two-inch tape,” Cody explains. “My hands were tingling because I got to sing on the actual microphone that Al Green recorded with. Nothing has changed. The down-home acoustic treatments are still in place.”
Cody ChesnuTT 2013 UK Tour Dates are as follows:
Mar 18th - London Bush Hall
Mar 19th - Brighton Concorde 2
Mar 21st - Manchester Ruby Lounge
