Daniel Norgren - Wooh Dang (April 19, 2019) Album

"Produced by Norgren and engineered by longtime collaborator and Superpuma Records originator Pelle Nyhage, 'Wooh Dang' was made during the fall of 2018 in a single room of a 19th-century textile farmhouse in the woods near Norgren’s home in Southwest Sweden. “The interior looked [like] it hadn’t been touched for the past 80 years,” says Norgren. “I moved a lamp and it left a dark red ring on the pink tablecloth underneath…goldmine! The house was huge, full of good, inspiring mustiness, creaking wooden floors, scary old portrait paintings on the walls, and an old, black German piano which I used in all the songs.” Recorded live and entirely on a 16-track analogue rig, without guitar tuners, the album captures the close chemistry between Norgren and his band, comprised of old friends Anders Grahn (bass), Erik Berntsson (drums) and Andreas Filipsson (guitar and banjo). An intertwining of analog instrumentation, live performance and rural field recordings, 'Wooh Dang' is rife with a deeply hopeful creative intention. It’s red-blooded, alive and coursing with equal parts adrenaline and seratonin. “'Wooh Dang' was a real fun album to make and to me it’s been the world for the last few years,” says Daniel Norgren. “Thanks for taking the time. I hope you enjoy it

 

Liked the sound of these I'll check it out when it's released

 

Blown away by how good this was on first listen. I really hope others around here will check this out.

First Listen: Daniel Norgren, 'Wooh Dang'

 

Well i can't speak for others but I'll at least give it a spin haha

EDIT: yeah enjoyed this on first listen. Although to me the timing of the release feels more like it belongs in the fall. Not sure how much I'll rock this during the warm summer months but maybe

 

Saw him live last night and was blown away. Albums don’t do his music justice, him and his band are one of the best I’ve seen.
