Lilly Hiatt - Royal Blue (Used CD)

On March 3rd, East Nashville firebrand Lilly Hiatt will release Royal Blue – the feisty, adventurous and smart follow-up to her critically lauded debut full-length Let Down. Recorded at producer Adam Landry”s (Deertick, Diamond Rugs, T. Hardy Morris) Nashville studio Playground Sound, the twelve new tracks skirt the edges of any neat genre definitions, boldly combining sounds of Austin folk rock, Pacific Northwest indie, pre-Oasis Britpop, 90”s alt guitars, 00”s indie synthesizers and New York punk circa 1977. Often presented with naked autobiographical candor, the new collection of songs is filtered through a wide spectrum of lenses – flashes of humor, attitude, deep worry and gritty determination can be heard – but ultimately, Hiatt would rather rock than mope.
