Description
Crazy Horse and E Street Band member Nils Lofgren speaks about his new album “These songs are all born of raw emotion,” shared Lofgren. “I gave myself permission to share my fear and my anger, my love and my hope, to be open about what I was experiencing without over analyzing or editing the life out of it.”
Along with Ringo Starr on drums and Cindy Mizelle, (a backup singer for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band and member of the Seeger Sessions Band,) adding backing vocals to the song.“Ain’t No Truth Enough” with Lofgren on lead vocals, lap steel, organ, and vibraphone and Kevin McCormick on bass.
In making the album, which was co-produced with his wife Amy, Lofgren said he challenged himself to write every day and used it as an outlet to release his frustrations with the socio-political state of the world. “The album started as a form of therapy, but it very quickly grew beyond that,” said Lofgren.
The album was recorded at his home in Scottsdale, Arizona. The 10-track Mountains also features contributions from the late David Crosby, Lofgren’s Crazy Horse bandmate Neil Young, jazz bassist Ron Carter, and the Howard Gospel Choir.
