Minding Days – CD

Description

Minding Days, the second solo album by singer-songwriter  Kody  Jackson,  tracks  a  decided shift in southern folk—rock Americana.  Sometimes  western,  sometimes aggressive, now and then lyrical—Minding  Days  blends  slide,  resonators,  acoustic  and  electric  guitars,  and  harrowing  vocals to evoke burning Texan winds, personal tragedies, and spiteful backwoods reckonings from the darkest blue-­‐collar dreams. Anger, pain, realism: Minding Days is a deeply reflective and starkly personal album that resists easy categories and familiar trends in favor of something greater than the sum of its parts.

Denton-­based singer-songwriter Kody Jackson has played with a number of D/FW acts across the past fifteen years, including The Fabulous Badasses, Spitfire Tumbleweeds, Old Warhorse, and  The  Big  Ole  Bastards.  Widely  recognized  for  the  range  of  his  baritone  vocals,  Jackson  reinvents his signature sound on Minding Days to complement studio musicians Tex Bosley (Spitfire Tumbleweeds, Warren Jackson Hearne and Le Leek Electrique) and Justin Collins (Burnt Sienna  Trio,  Spitfire  Tumbleweeds).  Minding  Days  was  recorded  and  mixed  by  Collins  and  mastered by Carl Saff.
