WARREN HAYNES’ NEW ‘ASHES AND DUST’ WITH RAILROAD EARTH NOW AVAILABLE ON CD, DELUXE CD & LP!

418456597917-500Warren Haynes’ new album with Railroad Earth Ashes and Dust is now available at The Record Exchange on CD, deluxe CD and LP!

Ashes and Dust is a masterful work of art and a particularly important statement for the Grammy Award winning artist Warren Haynes. The songs are immediately and clearly different from his usual style – encompassing beautiful acoustic arrangements, a rootsy/Americana soundscape and honeyed vocals that cut straight through to the soul. Knowing that he wanted to pursue a more folk-based approach on this project, he brought in the New Jersey-based Americana band Railroad Earth as collaborators. The 2-CD deluxe edition package features 5 bonus tracks.

ABOUT RYAN BINGHAM

ryan-bingham-fear-and-saturday-nightRecorded mostly live with a brand new backing band, Fear and Saturday Night shows Ryan Bingham facing down his past with a poetic grace throughout. The lead single “Radio” is about coping with a darkness that doesn’t want to let go, searching for a safe place to make sense of your life and the strength to stay on the right track through it all. Some of the most affecting moments on the album are in the harmonica-driven wistful waltz “Broken Heart Tattoos,” a song written to an unborn child, and in the title track, when he sings, “I don’t fear nothin’ except for myself / So I’m gonna go out and raise me some hell.”

“Certain things aren’t going to change,” he explains of the song. “You can’t run away or hide from the past. You have to live in it and deal with stuff and find your own way to overcome.”

Those hard-learned lessons, through both good times and bad, helped make Bingham the man he is today. Fear and Saturday Night is the most authentic, personal and deeply moving portrait of that man we’ve heard yet.
