Search - Joe Fahey :: Bushnell's Turtle

Here it is, Bushnell's Turtle, the long-awaited second solo release from Carp 18 leader Joe Fahey. Within this beautifully designed 6-panel digipak are 15 new songs penned by the prolific Minneapolis songwriter Joe Fahey and he sings them out in his strongest voice to date. Accompanied by his band The Bottom 40, his sons Sean Fahey, Ryan Fahey, members of Carp 18 and many other singers and musicians featuring David Stenshoel (Boiled in Lead) on violin and a vocal debut by Joe's wife Kathy Fahey this album ranges from intimate to rocking. Once again, Joe has written a song worthy of airplay on NPR's Car Talk with "I Could Not Steal Her Heart (So Stole Her Car)" as it was aired a few months back. A few years back, the Joe-penned Carp 18 song Muscle Car Blues (Tell Me Another) was played on Car Talk and it appeared on their CD Car Talk: Born Not to Run: More Disrespectful Car Songs and receives frequent airplay on satellite radio and on in flight entertainment channels on commercial airlines as well as other licensed sources. Recorded by Rod Bell at Below Ground Sound in St. Paul, MN, mixed by Tom Herbers (Low, Trampled By Turtles) at Creation Audio in Minneapolis, MN and produced by Joe Fahey.
