Liz Brasher - BABY DAMN

Vinyl LP pressing. After signing with Blue Élan Records, Brasher - armed with her arsenal of demos that included ready-made harmonies, bass, drums, guitar, piano - headed into the studio to bring the songs she recorded alone to life. She hunkered down at the legendary Sunset Sound studio with famed producer Joe Chiccarelli and an all-star group of musicians, including Matt Chamberlain (drums), Sean Hurley (bass), Roger Manning (keys) and David Levita (guitar), and harnessed the angst she felt in Memphis and subsequent rebirth in Southern California to create a body of work that is intimately bold. Baby Damn, Brasher's sophomore album, showcases her songwriting and performance, with songs like the Western twang-filled "Room to Ride," and the nostalgia-infused "Be in California". The songs were conceived when she was in Memphis, but Brasher was able to will them into becoming her reality.
