Written by Johnson Stephen on September 14, 2021
Gov’t Mule have announced that their first-ever blues album entitled ‘Heavy Load Blues’ will be released November 12th 2021 via Fantasy Records.
Though technically considered a studio album, ‘Heavy Load Blues’ was recorded live in the studio at The Power Station New England on analogue tape, utilising vintage guitars, amps and other equipment to capture an authentic sound.
The 13-track album was produced by Haynes alongside engineer and co-producer John Paterno (Michael Landau, Robbie Williams, The Steve Gadd Band).
The album is available for pre-order now at all DSPs here https://found.ee/MuleHeavyLoadBlues
