T Hardy Morris - Audition Tapes

Vinyl LP pressing. 2013 debut solo album from Georgia native musician T. Morris Hardy, best known as frontman for Southern Psych-rockers Dead Confederate. Recorded at Playground Sound Studios in Nashville, TN with Cosmic Thug production team Justin Collins and Adam Landry, the sessions behind Audition Tapes came to be with the help of a variety of Morris' talented circle of friends who dropped by to lend a hand, including Delta Spirit's Matt Vasquez, Black Lips/Diamond Rugs guitarist Ian Saint Pe, steel guitarist Matt Pistol Stossel, keyboardist Thayer Serrano, and drummer Julian Dorio (The Whigs). Audition Tapes finds Morris abundantly inspired, oftentimes invoking the grand spirits of Elliot Smith, Alex Chilton or fellow Georgian Vic Chesnutt.
