Gov’t Mule – Peace… Like A River (CD)
Gov't Mule's fourteenth studio album finds Warren Haynes and company examining turbulent times with the hard-won perspective of veterans who've weathered personal and cultural storms before. Peace… Like A River doesn't offer easy answers but instead poses the question of whether calm can be found amid chaos—and whether that search might be the point. The CD captures the band's signature blend of Southern rock, blues, and jam band exploration with studio clarity.
Haynes' guitar and vocals anchor an ensemble that's maintained its identity through decades of touring and recording. Matt Abts' drumming and Danny Louis' keyboards provide the foundation for extended instrumental passages that reward patient listening, while the songwriting reflects Haynes' literary influences and spiritual seeking. Production balances the power of their live shows with studio craft.
Relix has followed Gov't Mule since their formation as an Allman Brothers side project, documenting their evolution into a jam band institution in their own right. Peace… Like A River continues that journey.
