Shooter Jennings "Shooter Jennings And The Werewolves"
FORMAT | LP
Shooter Jennings And The Werewolves Of Los Angeles Do Zevon is a stirring live tribute to the legendary Warren Zevon. Featuring the collective talents of Shooter Jennings, Brian Whelan, Jamie Douglass, Ted Russell Kamp and John Schreffler, this album is even more: a monumental journey through Zevon's illustrious career. The recording took place at the band's inaugural performance at Rebels & Renegades Music Festival on October 16th, 2022 in Monterey, CA.
"I just wanted to challenge myself. I've been touring and playing piano with Brandi Carlile for two years in her band," Jennings explained of his new Zevon-centric project, in conversation with Rolling Stone. "And I'd really like to woodshed at the piano so much more. I'd been teaching myself a lot, so that'll make this fun and exciting..." He added, "With Zevon, I didn't realize it until I learned all these songs we were rehearsing, was how similar his vocal range and his style logically, the keys he's choosing, is very much a lot like myself." "There's a lot of overlaps with y own life [and his]," he continued. "And I just have such an admiration for the simplicity of his songwriting. The chords and things, it's all very simple, but it's so artistic and biting. Lyrically, he can chop a whole forest down with one word-it's amazing."
