Californian singer-songwriter Grey DeLisle presents a double set filled with stories and reflections. If you're a fan of 1950s- or 1960s-style country with the elegance of Kitty Wells, Loretta Lynn this is for you.
The artists on The Grey Album are like a Who’s Who of Americana and roots rock: strings by Tammy Rogers (Emmylou Harris, Neil Diamond, Patty Loveless), horns by David Ralicke (Lucinda Williams, Beck, Morrissey, John Cale), pedal steel by Greg Leisz (ummm…every major American artist who has ever used pedal steel?). And the best part is, they all separately contributed their parts in the coolest game of relay ever, after the original analog recordings were digitally mastered by renowned sound engineer Todd Burke (Ben Harper, Albert Hammond Jr., Belle and Sebastian). Grey would send the tracks off to Rogers, who laid down the heavenly strings and passed it on to Leisz for the pedal steel magic, then on to Ralicke for horns.
Along the way, DeLisle kept on writing more and more songs, and meeting more and more artists with whom she just had to collaborate. At a dinner party she happened to be seated next to the Runaways’ Cherie Currie, which had to be a sign because she had just written ‘40-Something Runaway’ that morning! Would Currie like to sing on it? She sure would! This is the kind of serendipity that seems to follow Grey DeLisle everywhere she goes. Stephen McCarthy (Long Ryders, Jayhawks) came on board for ‘Didn’t We Try’, and Etzioni lent his song ‘Convince Me’ originally written for Roy Orbison before his sudden death in 1988.
DeLisle took all of these threads over the course of five years to finally bring together the tapestry of
The Grey Album.
