 JD McPherson has crafted something truly unique and amazing with his latest album, "Nite Owls," marking his first release since the critically acclaimed 2018 Christmas classic, "SOCKS." Over the past five years, JD McPherson has kept himself consistently busy, writing new songs while touring with Alison Krauss and Robert Plant. Being a touring musician offers the chance to see the sights, explore towns, and draw inspiration from local record shops. With "Nite Owls," JD aimed to try something new and different. He wanted to draw inspiration from multiple decades and styles, incorporating them into his own sound. "The initial idea for the record was: It’s like if the late-60s Ventures were the session band on the first New Order record," McPherson explains. Mission accomplished. "Nite Owls" delivers the signature sounds of vintage garage-rock while seamlessly bridging the influences of Bowie and Alan Vega. Tracks like "Sunshine Getaway," "The Rock and Roll Girls," and "I Can’t Go Anywhere with You" evoke the spirit of Chuck Berry jamming with Buddy Holly. Meanwhile, songs like "Nite Owls" and "Don’t Travel Through the Night Alone" nod to the Factory sound from the UK. The throwback vibe of the lone instrumental track, "The Phantom Lover of New Rochelle," would make Dick Dale ride and Link Wray rumble. With "Nite Owls," McPherson takes inspiration from multiple genres of the past, blending them to evolve a sound that is distinctly his own. Tracks: 01. Sunshine Getaway 02.
