Jake Bugg – Alamo (CD)
Product Details
Nottingham-born and discovered as a teenager, Jake Bugg arrived in 2012 with an acoustic directness that drew comparisons to early Dylan and Donovan, but the debt was always overplayed. His real lineage runs through the British folk-rock tradition and the working-class storytelling of artists like Ray Davies. *Alamo* finds him returning to the stripped, honest territory that made his debut resonate so strongly with listeners who value songs over production gloss.
The new Jake Bugg album "Alamo," his seventh to date as he heads into his thirties, is produced by Jimmy Hogarth and is Jake’s most personal and heartfelt to date. Lyrically and sonically the album has a distinctly raw and rootsy honesty. "Never Can Tell " is the first featured song from this album and is about how life pulls us in all different directions making us feel uncertain and like we’re sometimes not moving forward." Jake comments further “I wrote and recorded this record with my friends Jimmy Hogarth and Steve McEwan in London. I suppose it’s quite a personal and reflective record, and I feel it’s another step in the direction of my older sound and a record I really enjoyed making."
