Product Details

Dave Alvin carries the DNA of California's working-class rock and roll in his bones, from his years founding The Blasters through decades of solo work rooted in the American vernacular. Jimmie Dale Gilmore brings a West Texas sensibility shaped by the Flatlanders and a voice that seems to exist outside of time. When these two lifers share a stage and then a studio, the conversation between their traditions, Southland grit meeting High Plains mysticism, is one worth leaning into closely.

DOWNEY TO LUBBOCK was born by immaculate inspiration from live shows Grammy winner Dave Alvin and Grammy nominee Jimmie Dale Gilmore performed together in 2017. Just the two of them were swapping songs and cutting up, each with a guitar and a heart full of soul, musicians who ve been on the road their entire adult lives. The result is an album of blues, rock and folk inspired tunes that both of their fans will enjoy. The album contains 12 songs - 10 covers and two originals - and is destined to be a classic Americana album from two Americana legends.
