With The Eclipse Sessions the country-blues singer from Indianapolis continues his journey with New West Records. Since his previous record, Terms of My Surrender released in 2014, John Hiatt has grown older and wiser. Impacted by all the changes that life can throw at someone, and feeling the marks of time on his face, he can finally play the role of an old sage. The Eclipse Sessions is a contemporary record which embraces its cracks and rough appearance. Using the evolution of his career as a central theme, Hiatt certainly doesn’t lack substance as he juggles between lyricism and spirituality, humour and sorrow but most of all, authenticity. The album was recorded in under six days, during the lunar eclipse on 21st August, adding a mystical dimension to the work. Accompanied by Patrick O'Hearn on the bass and Kenneth Blevins on the drums, Hiatt recorded this album at his friend Kevin McKendree’s farm, a musician himself. It’s simple and efficient with a warm and relaxed atmosphere. Even McKendree's son, Yates (just 15 years old), joins in on his guitar. Hiatt opens the album with his rough and lively voice with a rock roots song called Cry To Me, a track for all the broken and lonely hearts . His quirky and intelligent humour soon surfaces, for example on Poor Imitation Of God. The album’s groovy styled blues makes you forget that the singer is already 66 years old. © Clara Bismuth/Qobuz
