Ecclectic producer, singer, songwriter Shooter Jennings has built a career highlighted by music as diverse as his devoted fan base, and his seventh studio LP Countach (for Giorgio) is no different. The new album, comprised of songs composed or inspired by production pioneer Giorgio Moroder, will be released on vinyl February 26, 2016 and on CD March 11.
This is no tribute album. Countach is a sound collage-style journey through 80s and 90s culture, innovative songwriting, genre-bending fiddle-meets-synthesizer soundscapes and a shrine to pioneers of books, bytes and beats.
Printed on pink vinyl, Countach features guest appearances from modern folk songstress Brandi Carlile, Antichrist Superstar Marilyn Manson, country-rock pioneer Steve Young and even Lord British himself, computer game leviathan Richard Garriott.
In addition to the limited vinyl pressing, cd and traditional online outlets, Countach will be available on cassette, 8-track and cylinder formats on BCR Los Angeles and was produced by Shooter. The album follows Shooter’s 2014 release of Don’t Wait Up (for George) an EP paying tribute to George Jones.
An early preview of Countach, as well as a vinyl giveaway will take place inside Richard Garriott’s masterpiece massive multiplayer online role-playing game “Shroud of the Avatar.”
Fans can pre-order Countach on pink vinyl for $17.00 here.
