Sermon On The Rocks

Listen to "Getting Ready To Get Down" at NPR Music   Pre-Order the record exclusively at JoshRitter.com   Hey all! I have a new record coming out on October 16. It's called Sermon On The Rocks. I made it in New Orleans earlier this year.   I wanted the wind off the Gulf. I wanted the air that touches the skin. I wanted the paint that sticks to the back of the eyeball. I wanted the scream of nutrias. I wanted a house full of music and laughter. I wanted to make something grand. I wanted it to swing hard. I wanted to peek through death’s keyhole. I wanted my monster to run. I wanted to sing songs that I had written in stretches of frenzy. I wanted to fall in love with every note. I wanted to hold each one and let it slip away like ribbon through the hands. I wanted to make something important to me and to no one else. I wanted it like I’ve never wanted anything in my life. I wanted it because life is short and I wouldn’t want to leave it without giving it all of my love.   I wanted to work with Trina Shoemaker, whose genius is utter and pure.I wanted to work with Zack Hickman, Sam Kassirer, Josh Kaufman and Matt Barrick because they are among the most imaginative people I have ever had the honor of knowing. I wanted to play in a beautiful studio all day and walk home at night through the ghosty wedding cake houses of the Garden District dark. I wanted to play messianic oracular honky-tonk.   Mama says that I was born hungry, but I woke up one morning not long ago and found that I was ravenous.   I'm playing some special album release shows with the Royal City Band in October. Those tickets go on sale Friday. Check joshritter.com for details. More shows to be announced soon.   Can't wait for you to hear it, Josh #sermonontherocks Be the joy to the joyful, Be the laughter in the grief. Copyright (C) 2015 Josh Ritter All rights reserved.
