Description
Alabama Shakes’ debut is one of the most spoken about and highly anticipated albums of the year. There has been astonishing worldwide media attention surrounding this release and all for a genuine reason, it will simply blow your mind. This is no doubt Alabama Shakes are here to set the world on fire. Alabama Shakes are fronted by 22 year old vocalist/guitarist Brittany Howard. They started playing together in high school, in Athens, Alabama, a part of the world with a long heritage for making the most soulful rock music. The band’s debut album Boys & Girls was recorded at The Bomb Shelter in Nashville, USA. Produced and mixed by the band members, the album is a vibrant fusion of swampy dirty south-rock, blues and soul delivered with punk rock fervour.
Boys & Girls has sold over 1 millions copies, was nominated for multiple Grammys and brought the band international acclaim. It is repackaged here in a foil-board gatefold jacket with new photos and a bonus radio session of 12 raw and explosive tracks from KCRW, recorded in January 2012 just as the band were ready to be unleashed.
