Album
Svendsen, Trond & Tuxedo
Smalltown Stories LP
(Rootsy Music)

Price: 199 SEK

It’s finally here.

Two years after the release of their critically acclaimed debutalbum «Palomino Motel».

«Smalltown stories» is the second album from the Norwegian Americana-band Trond Svendsen & Tuxedo, and is being released Friday June the 14th on Rootsy Music (SE).

The record picks up the spirit from the debut, but at the same time it shows a band that has grown tighter, and a band that uses a broader range of musical colors.

- We wanted the album to feel a bit like a soundtrack. The record is supposed to take the listener on a journey through every side of growing up in a small town, Trond Svendsen says.

The record contains of 10 songs, of which one is an instrumental written by the bands guitar player Lars Linkas.

«Smalltown stories» is everything from pure country music in «Water in the well», classic heartlandrock in «Nobody works on Fridays anymore», rockabilly noir in «Fuel my fire» and a little bit of gospel in «I can hear the river».

The record is being released as CD and LP, and is of course available on every streaming platform out there.

Just like the debut album, «Smalltown stories» is also recorded in analogue Memphis Bound Studio in Hamar, Norway.

The album is produced by Trond Svendsen & Tuxedo, mixed by Magnus Østvang and mastered at L. Nix Mastering in Memphis, Tennessee.

The band is hitting the road with the new record in the trunk.

Trond Svendsen & Tuxedo will play all the major Norwegian country festivals during the summer of 2019.

On July 13th the band will perform a acoustic church concert together will Emmylou Harris in Breim, Norway.
