Night Beats announce new album Outlaw R&B


Night Beats




The new Night Beats album has been set for release on May 4th.

After ending 2020 with the glorious gospel-tinged blues of That’s All You Got, Danny Lee Blackwell has announced the details of his new Night Beats album Outlaw R&B.

Coming out of the child of Texas’ new Californian home, it was recorded during that state’s period of devastating wildfires, public unrest and, of course, national lockdown, and is being previewed today with New Day.

“New Day is my postcard from purgatory,” Blackwell says. “Upon going into lockdown I holed myself up with Akira Kurosawa movies and canned goods.”

“This is the result of sleepless nights while hearing the world crumble outside my window. I sing of desperation and loss, while grinning in the face of an uncertain future.”

“Outlaw R&B is music for the borderless, the free, the outcasts and the forgotten,” he adds. Those whose minds aren’t sold by perfect pitch and clean fingernails. ”

“Take heed as each color coordinated minute of this record will induce temporary insanity. However, do enjoy the trip – just leave your coat and jacket at the door with Willie Nelson and position yourself near the bar, where Isaac Hayes runs the show.”
