It’s been awhile since Renée Wahl’s 2011 debut LP, 2011’s “Cumberland Moonshine,” but after a 2016 EP, the singer-songwriter is now back with a follow-up LP, “Cut to the Bone” on March 15. Until then, you can hear two single releases from the record, “From Here to There” and “To the Bone” over at Spotify.
Labelled by some as “outlaw Americana,” it’s a badge this Air Force veteran and Physics major should wear proudly as a testament to her raw, honest and often dark sound. But as Renée says, “she writes from her heart, occasionally changing names to protect the innocent.” The new record was recorded locally and produced by Stuart Mathis. It also features some of the coolest tremolo guitar I’ve heard since those early Chris Isaak records.
We are thankful to Renée for taking time out for the 11 Questions. She will be taking the stage with her band the “Sworn Secrets” at 8:30 this Friday March 15 at everybody’s favorite small room, The Five Spot.
