Listen to Damien Jurado’s New Album “Brothers And Sisters Of The Eternal Son”
Singer-songwriter Damien Jurado has given us some of our favorite music over the years, including albums Rehearsals For Departure, Saint Bartlett and 2012’s Mariqopa,. According to Jurado’s PR, his new album Brothers and Sisters of the Eternal Son is intended as a sequel to his last album, Mariqopa. In keeping with recent albums, the new album was again produced by Richard Swift, and his kitchen-sink production motif is apparent from the beginning of the album. You can listen to the new album for the next week over at NPR. As you’ll hear, the first five songs are big-production numbers that smack of various ’60s movie soundtracks but with Jurado’s signature vocals lighting the way. The last half of the album thankfully yields the spotlight to the quieter and more affecting side of Jurado. Overall Brothers and Sisters of the Eternal Son is yet another plum in the Jurado discography. Check it out at the NPR link above.
