Not Cool

Description

Nashville, TN Not Cool, the tenth studio album from critically acclaimed Folk/Rocker Tim Easton will be released 2nd September on his own label Campfire Propaganda with marketing and distribution support from Thirty Tigers.

Not Cool is a satisfying return to the more rootsy side of Tim Easton, informed by folk traditions and inspired by a walk into a honky-tonk directly across the street from the legendary Ryman Auditorium. Eastons previous releases have garnered accolades from Rolling Stone, NPRs Fresh Air, American Songwriter and more. After stints in NYC and most recently Joshua Tree, CA, Easton recently settled in Nashville where he recorded Not Cool.

The title track harkens back to the sound that many associate with Tim Easton reflective and contemplative, highlighting his lyrical gift and bluesy, tasteful guitar. The Chicago Sun Timesonce wrote of Easton His songs resolve around the moments of musical camaraderie that exist between broken hearts, introspective loners and dark nights that illuminate the soul. Though not everything on the album was recently written, when Easton envisioned a rockabilly inspired collection in a style he refers to as modern vintage songs that hadnt fit on previous releases found a home on Not Cool. The albums closing track Knock Out Roses is a tasteful instrumental tribute to Levon Helm, written on the day he passed away.
