NewsChrissie Hynde / Valve Bone Woe
Chrissie hopes you like her new direction
Chrissie Hynde has announced a new album of covers for September with the Valve Bone Woe Ensemble. It’s called Valve Bone Woe and sees Hynde interpret songs by Frank Sinatra, John Coltrane, Nick Drake, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Charlie Mingus and others.
In what she’s calling a “jazz/dub” album, it was recorded at London’s AIR studios and produced by Marius de Vries and Eldad Guetta. A couple of examples are online now to give you a taste, such as this rendition of The Beach Boys’ ‘Caroline, No’.
Speaking directly to a press release, Hynde revealed “I’m not hugely interested in branching out into other musical genres, being a devout rock singer as such, but jazz is something I grew up around”
“Jazz got sidelined by rock & roll in the ‘60s, but now the demise of rock seems to be heralding in a newfound interest in it, the most creative and innovative musical forms of the 20th century. I’m happy to jump on the bandwagon.”
The signed CD from Amazon in the UK for less than £10 is hard to beat (sadly no longer available), but you can also browse the official online store for a seven-inch box set edition, or other bundles.
Valve Bone Woe is released on 6 September via BMG.
