Hiatt, Douglas team up for new disc

Wednesday, March 3, 2021 – John Hiatt with The Jerry Douglas Band will release "Leftover Feelings" on May 21 via New West Records.

The 11-song set was produced by Douglas and recorded at RCA Studio B in Nashville.

The collaboration follows Hiatt's 2018 studio album "The Eclipse Sessions." Douglas is a Dobro master. The Jerry Douglas Band's 2017 studio album, "What If," was nominated for a Grammy Award in the "Best Contemporary Instrumental Album" category.

"I was immediately taken back to 1970, when I got to Nashville," said Hiatt upon entering the studio. A half-century ago, Hiatt lived in a ratty, $15-a-week room on Nashville's 16th Avenue, less than a mile away from RCA and Columbia studios. "You can't not be aware of the records that were made there...Elvis, the Everly Brothers, Waylon Jennings doing 'Only Daddy That'll Walk the Line' (which is referenced in the new song "The Music is Hot"). But that history wasn't intimidating, because it's such a comfortable place to make music."

Today, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum has premiered the video for "All The Lilacs In Ohio," which was filmed at Studio B during the recording sessions. Lagan Sebert and Ted Roach directed the video.

The track listing is:
1. Long Black Electric Cadillac
2. Mississippi Phone Booth
3. The Music Is Hot
4. All The Lilacs In Ohio
5. I'm In Asheville
6. Light Of The Burning Sun
7. Little Goodnight
8. Buddy Boy
9. Changes In My Mind
10. Keen Rambler
11. Sweet Dream

CD review - Terms of My Surrender As he has for decades now, John Hiatt keeps churning out quality live tours based around quality albums and songs that are hard not to love. On his latest, his seventh with his current label and his follow-up to 2012's "Mystic Pinball," Hiatt sounds like he's finally aged into his wise-beyond-his-years voice. "Are you rolling?" Hiatt is heard asking before "Face Of God" kicks in, a ramshackle crawl that sounds like it was swept off the recording floor ...
CD review - Mystic Pinball Over the course of his 40-year career, John Hiatt has pretty much hit for the stylistic cycle, from folk troubadour to skinny tie new wave rager to roots rock raconteur to alt.-country shitkicker to bluesy bruiser, utilizing varying degrees of his various musical personae as his songs required. Just as importantly, Hiatt has made sure to fold in elements of his tough/tender singer/songwriter side in every musical iteration he's presented, which has provided a consistent thread for his ...
CD review - Traveler The resophonic guitar is certainly not exclusive to bluegrass - it's the least used of the six common bluegrass instruments - but to many people it's a Dobro© and it elicits a bluegrass connection. Mention Jerry Douglas' name and many who recognize him think of the multitude of great bluegrass associations he's had through the years, including many years with Union Station. If you've had the pleasure of listening to his CDs, though, you know his solo recordings ...
