St. Paul & The Broken Bones - St. Paul & The Broken Bones [CD]

'St. Paul & The Broken Bones,' the long-awaited sixth studio album from St. Paul & The Broken Bones, is both a step forward and a return to form for the rock & roll soul band from Birmingham, Alabama. Recorded at world-renowned Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, produced by Grammy nominated producer and songwriter Eg White (Adele, Sam Smith, Florence and the Machine), and mixed by Grammy award winning producer, mixer and engineer Matt Ross-Spang, St. Paul & The Broken Bones showcases the dynamic vocals of Paul Janeway, and captures the essence of The Broken Bones’ full-band musicianship. This will be the first album released via the band’s own label, Oasis Pizza Records in partnership with Thirty Tigers.

Founded in Birmingham, Alabama in 2011, St. Paul & the Broken Bones consists of Paul Janeway (vocals), Jesse Phillips (bass), Browan Lollar (guitar), Kevin Leon (drums), Al Gamble (keyboards), Allen Branstetter (trumpet), Chad Fisher (trombone), and Amari Ansari (saxophone). The eight-piece ensemble burst into the world with their 2014 debut Half the City, establishing a sound that quickly became a calling card and landing the band a slew of major festivals including Lollapalooza, Coachella and Glastonbury. Critical praise from The New York Times, Rolling Stone, SPIN and NPRfollowed, leading to shared stages with some of the world’s biggest artists—Elton John and The Rolling Stones among them—and launching an impressive run of headlining tours behind what Esquire touted as a “potent live show that knocks audiences on their ass.”
