Acclaimed Texas-based musicians Zella Day and Jesse Woods are the country music duo Chaparelle. Esteemed for their exceptional vocal prowess and celebrated contributions to their distinct genres, Zella and Jesse craft a musical tapestry that harkens back to legendary duets of icons like George and Tammy or Gram and Emmylou. This partnership channels the enduring allure of Country music’s golden age, weaving a melodic narrative that resonates with themes of love and the indomitable Texan essence. [Rough Trade]

The album’s title reflects on Holsapple’s age at the making of the album, 68 years old, and he follows that directness in the songwriting on the album, speaking openly about the perspective that years may bring to ideas of life and death, marriage, and memory. Combining those themes with a rocking, irrepressible energy makes the album that much more approachable and even anthemic. To build this sound, Holsapple worked with Robert Sledge (Ben Folds Five) on bass and Rob Ladd (The Connells) on drums, and they worked with Producer Don Dixon (R.E.M., Smithereens). ~Hannah Means-Shannon [Glide Magazine]
It’s the cover that draws me back, but I rather enjoy the Vocal style as well.

Album pre ordered some time ago, but managed to stop myself buying the ATMOS Blu-ray last week as well when I found that
