Search - Ian Siegal :: The Picnic Sessions

Featuring Ian Siegal with Alvin Youngblood Hart, Cody Dickinson, Luther Dickinson, and Jimbo Mathus. The Picnic Sessions is an uncut diamond, the perfect expression of what happens when five talented musicians with a love of Blues & roots Americana get together and play and sing, with no pre-determined idea of the outcome. You can hear the relaxed enjoyment and spontaneity as they swap instrumental roles, add harmonies and contribute ideas. It s a 'back porch' session without the porch, recorded at Zebra Ranch studio in Coldwater, Mississippi. Ian Siegal says: 'There s something liberating about recording casually without the pressure of having to produce an album. So don t expect perfection, it s more to do with the vibe, which you can gather from some of the banter that ensued between songs. We had a blast, like kids let out of class!...'
