Tooth amp Nail was recorded over a whirlwind fiveday session with Grammy Awardwinning producer Joe Henry whose impeccable production credits include Solomon Burke, Aimee Mann, Elvis Costello and Allen Toussaint in his South Pasadena studio. Working with a small band of musicians whose talents had recently appeared on records by the likes of Bon Iver, Lana del Rey and Regina Spektor, the performances have a wonderfully spontaneous feel. The results are, according to BILLY a return to the rootsy sound of 1998 s Mermaid Avenue sessions he recorded with Wilco drawing on soul, country and folk music influences to explore the ups and downs of relationships that have stood the test of time. In 2011,I took a long, hard look at who I am and what I do. This album is the result. Billy Bragg CD/DVD is available for home delivery from Vinyl Records London, only £16.99
