Info for All Your Favorite Bands

Nachdem wir Dawes zuletzt als Backingband von Conor Oberst erleben durften, können wir uns jetzt auf neues Material aus eigener Feder freuen. Jetzt erscheint der vierte Longplayer der Kalifornier auf dem bandeigenen Label HUB Records. „All Your Favorite Band“ wurde von David Rawlings (Dave Rawlings Machine, Gillian Welch, Robyn Hitchcock, Old Crow Medicine Show, Willie Watson) produziert und in den Woodland Sound Studios in Nashville, TN aufgenommen.

Alle neun Stücke wurden von Frontmann Taylor Goldsmith geschrieben (der Titeltrack entstand in Zusammenarbeit mit Johnny Fritz).

„Dawes plays it old school. The group’s music evokes the best of the classic canyon rock era of the ‘60s and ‘70s.” (Los Angeles Times)

'Dawes put a smile on my face, reinvigorated me…Made me believe what once was, that elusive elixir that hooked me back when, has returned.' (Bob Lefsetz)

„Dawes are natural experts at vintage allure: the precise twang and breezy introspection of Seventies California rock. The great Browne and Anglo-L.A. Fleetwood Mac albums also masked profound turmoil and broken paradise. Dawes treat these wounds with the same trusted medicine: warming vocal rain and a rich weave of guitars and keyboards. It still works.“ (Rolling Stone)

Dawes
California-based roots rock band Dawes were formed in the Los Angeles suburb of North Hills by brothers Taylor Goldsmith and Griffin Goldsmith (lead vocals/guitar and drums, respectively), Wylie Gelber (bass), and Alex Casnoff (guitar). They were previously in the band Simon Dawes, but after Blake Mills left the group, they changed the name (and added Casnoff, who was soon replaced by Tay Strathairn). Unlike the more intense indie rock sound they had as Simon Dawes, Dawes were heavily influenced by the gentle, acoustic-based musical trappings and rich vocal harmony of the Laurel Canyon sound (Crosby, Stills & Nash, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell), as well as by the shambling, romanticized Americana of the Band. After connecting with producer Jonathan Wilson, the group began participating in informal jam sessions at Wilson's house with Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst, the Heartbreakers' Benmont Tench, and the Black Crowes' Chris Robinson. The loose feel of these get-togethers informed the group's aptly titled 2009 debut North Hills. The album was recorded in Laurel Canyon live to analog tape, which lent Dawes' recorded sound an authentically vintage vibe.

The band's second album, 2011's Nothing Is Wrong had a similar feel to the debut and peaked at number 23 on the Billboard album charts. That same year, the band had a pair of unique experiences: playing at the Occupy Wall Street protests and appearing as themselves on a prime-time network television show (Parenthood). Stories Don't End, the group's hotly anticipated third studio album, arrived in 2013. Recorded in Nashville at the esteemed Woodland Studios with producer David Rawlings (Gillian Welch, Old Crow Medicine Show), the Hub-issued All Your Favorite Bands arrived in June 2015.

This album contains no booklet.
