Caleb Caudle w/ Wild Ponies
Caleb Caudle wanted an earthy, funky sound for his new album. He assembled several
Grammy-winning musicians to chase it down in the Cash Cabin, a small place with a big history. It feels like youre in the shadow of giants, Caudle says.
He emerged from the shadows with Better Hurry Up, his eighth studio album.
Its 11 songs showcase Caudles vivid lyrics and foreboding vocals, as well as the work of an A-list cast of musicians. John Jackson of the Jayhawks produced, and guest vocalists include Courtney Marie Andrews, Elizabeth Cook, Gary Louris, and John Paul White.
A large sound emerged from the little cabin, which Johnny Cash built in 1979 as a private
sanctuary near his home outside Nashville. It evolved into a recording studio more than a decade later. Since then the rustic structure has hosted sessions by everyone from Loretta Lynn and Emmylou Harris to Jamey Johnson and Todd Snider, as well as Cashs own work on his acclaimed series of American Recordings. Caudle and Jackson used the space to create a dramatic, compelling record.
Better Hurry Up follows Caudles celebrated 2018 album Crushed Coins. Ann Powers selected that records Empty Arms as one of NPR Musics Songs We Love, saying Caleb Caudles sound encompasses the wide expanse of America, as the best country rock always will. In a review of Crushed Coins for PopMatters, writer Jeff Strowe said Caudle has recorded an albums worth of songs that continue to grow in the soul upon each repeated listen.
Although they're based in Nashville, Wild Ponies have always looked to Southwest Virginia where bandmates Doug and Telisha Williams were both born and raised for inspiration. There, in mountain towns like Galax, old-time American music continues to thrive, supported by a community of fiddlers, flat-pickers, and fans.
Wild Ponies pay tribute to that powerful music and rugged landscape with 2017's Galax, a stripped-back album that nods to the band's history while still pushing forward. Doug and Telisha took some of their favorite musicians from Nashville (Fats Kaplin, Will Kimbrough, Neilson Hubbard and Audrey Spillman) and met up with revered Old-Time players from Galax, Virginia (Snake Smith, Kyle Dean Smith, and Kilby Spencer). Recorded in the shed behind Dougs old family farm in the Appalachians (steps away from the site where Doug and Telisha were married), it returns Wild Ponies to their musical and geographic roots.
Growing up, a young Doug Williams spent many an hour watching and learning as his grandfather played banjo alongside local musical legends like Snake and Kyle Dean. Although both of his grandparents have now passed away, they would surely be proud to see Doug and Telisha gathered in the shed with Snake, Kyle Dean, Kilby, and a diverse handful of the best musicians from Nashville. The result is a broad, bold approach to Appalachian music, created by a multi-cultural band whose members span several generations.
