Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons
About
Like many artists before him, Wisconsin based singer-songwriter Cory Chisel, first connected with the power of song – and the spellbinding possibilities of live performance – through the music he heard in church as the son of a Baptist minister. The gospel’s rich vernacular of loss and redemption also informed his innate poetic sense and lyrical range.
Mockingbird, Chisel’s forthcoming album is plainspoken, intimate and soulful, Chisel’s songs have an unadorned, lived-in beauty, free from clutter and pretense. The album was produced by Grammy-winning producer Joe Chiccarelli (The Shins, The White Stripes) and features members of The Raconteurs and My Morning Jacket. Mockingbird will be released in July and follows up Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons’ 2008 live EP Cabin Ghosts, which Chisel co-produced with Tony Berg.
