"INDIANOLA"...COMING SOON!
Steve Azar launched a radio phenomenon with “I Don’t Have to Be Me (‘Til Monday)” and a video sensation with “Waitin’ on Joe.” He is creating music for movies and narrating a documentary. But the busier and bigger he gets, the more his thoughts have turned homeward to his Mississippi Delta roots on his new record, "Indianola".
“For the longest time, I felt like I couldn’t go home,” says the singer-songwriter. “I think so many of us are in a hurry to leave where we’re from. I know I was in a hurry. When I got to Nashville, everything about home started oozing out of me. Then I finally accepted it. Now I know it’s OK to go home. I feel that at this point in my life, I have finally found myself.
His home studio was the genesis of most of the sounds on Indianola. He and his band, plus guests such as Radney Foster, A.J. Masters and Jo-El Sonnier created layers of sound there. Azar then took the tapes to a Music Row studio for further layering, percussion and polish. This is the first time he has produced his own record, and the result is stunning.
In addition to writing or co-writing every song on Indianola and engineering and producing the collection, Steve Azar plays slide guitar, mandolin, acoustic and electric guitar at various places on the project. The album is the latest step in a life that has always been marked by artistic forward progress. “This is going to be an exciting year,” he says. “I think this is a good time for me. I have never slept so soundly in my life, so I know I’m at peace, musically. I already have some believers on my side. And that’s good, because I think this is the best record I have ever made.”
The new album is AWESOME!! I was in the cd store and they had your cd in the front at the counter, I took the last one. Also got the 3 doors down cd, that's a good one too.
