Spottiswoode & His Enemies” latest release, BUILDING A ROAD, is a new departure for the band. Recorded in four glorious days, and produced by the band, it captures the Enemies in a gospel mode. With the addition of piano, accordion and backing vocals, the band travels a jagged path to redemption. Spottiswoode has been compared to Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave, and David Bowie. His response: ”Tom Waits would never do anything in bad taste; Leonard Cohen couldn”t be upbeat if his life depended upon it; Nick Cave is a prisoner of his own tortured hipness; David Bowie hasn”t uttered an honest word in his life.” In vain, he waits for a comparison with his true idol, Bob Dylan. He is clearly delusional. Spottiswoode & His Enemies are: Spottiswoode: guitars, vocals Kevin Cordt: trumpet, toy piano, vocals Candace De Bartolo: saxophone, clarinet, vocals Riley McMahon: guitars, lap steel, mandolin Tim Vaill: drums John Young: bass BUILDING A ROAD also features special guests: Renee Cologne, Alexis England, Victoria Villalobos: backing vocals Tony Lauria: accordion Kenny White: piano, hammond organ, wurlitzer The CD was engineered and mixed by Gene Holder at Jolly Roger Recording in Hoboken, N.J.
