about

Bumpy No. 16 is "Stardust & Hurt": Larry Wish's brand new collection of synthy Country music cover songs. The album is named after two well-known covers, whose performance by Country artists are a couple of the most cherished songs in the cannon of Country music today. The first is "Stardust", a pop song by Hoagy Carmichael and Mitchell Parish that has been recorded over 1,500 times since the late 1920s, and is now regarded as an American Standard. One of these recordings was made by beloved Country artist Willie Nelson, and it reflects the light-hearted whimsy and effervescent romance of Country. The second song is Johnny Cash's version of "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails, a nail-on-the-head description of the pain and sorrow that is the lifeblood of so many Country songs.

Covering others' songs reflects the long-standing tradition of storytelling in Country music, and the desire to take the music to new places, while at the same time preserving the craft, is just as embedded in that tradition. On "Stardust & Hurt", Larry Wish uses synths, processed electric guitars, drum machines, and his dramatic, baritone voice to bring a cartoonish landscape to his favorite Country songs, while honoring the shining beauty and sacred emotion of each one. We hope fans of both Country and Electronic music will enjoy this exploration! "Stardust & Hurt" is available on CD, cassette, and streaming platforms April 23rd.
