We are very excited to announce that following Hugo Race’s recent excursions into world electronica (Dirtmusic’s ‘Bu Bir Ruya’ and ‘Gemini 4’) meets 21st century blues (‘John Lee Hooker’s World Today’), the former Bad Seed is back with a new album of modern folk songs, ‘Taken By The Dream’, a cinematic tapestry of complex emotional states illuminated by mercurial moments of dazzling light and grace. Taken by The Dream will be released by Glitterhouse Records on April 26th, 2019.
Recorded in Ravenna in collaboration with Diego Sapignoli and Francesco Giampaoli from one of Italy’s most popular and influential instrumental bands, Sacri Cuori, studio guests include Chris Brokaw (ex-Dirtmusic, Come, Codeine), Bryan Colechin (The True Spirit), violinist Vicki Brown (Calexico), New Zealand pop songstress Lisa Crawley, Giovanni Ferrario (Scisma, Micevice), and cameo appearances from Race’s long-time musical partner Michelangelo Russo.
The first single from Takenbythedream, ‘Phenomenon’, drops Friday March 31st!!
