Cody ChesnuTT — Landing On a Hundred: B Sides and Remixes (2014) |
Cody ChesnuTT — Landing On a Hundred: B Sides and Remixes
♦¤♦ Cody Chesnutt is a singer–songwriter and guitarist who mixes rock, R&B, hip–hop, blues, pop, and soul into a unique, lo–fi hybrid.
♦¤♦ “Any one of these songs can be a friend to anybody at any given time.” — Cody ChesnuTT
♦¤♦ “It was great to have other people — Questlove, Gary Clark Jr, Danny Swain, Jay West and Manuel Sahagun — contribute their talent and interpretations to the mix,” says Cody. “They brought colors and textures that I might not have considered, but did so with desire to maintain the integrity of the original work.” — Cody ChesnuTT
♦¤♦ Famed Soul Troubadour Heads to SXSW for Several Shows As Part of Spring Tour
♦¤♦ Landing on A Hundred: B-Sides and Remixes picks up where the full length album left off… surveying the landscape of everyday life. The message —that life in these times must be dealt with head on — is dressed in a myriad of sonic outfits, but is consistent in its spirit.

♦¤♦ Cody ChesnuTT taps Gary Clark Jr for the bounce–inducing church blues of “Gunpowder On The Letter”, his first drop from the upcoming B–Side & Remixes cut of his stellar Landing On A Hundred LP. Clark and ChesnuTT trade off sliding licks and croon supreme all over this shuffling rocker, perfectly melding each of their strong suits. ChesnuTT has mounted quite a resurgence this year. What do you think?
♦¤♦ His album Landing On A Hundred turned out to be the old–soul review most of us always knew he was capable of, he landed himself on one of our star–studded showcases at SXSW this year, and now it seems he’s releasing a B–Sides & Remixes cut of the aforementioned LP, chock full of one–offs, never–heards and remixes by ?uestlove, Danny! — on a special OKP remix of “Scroll Call” — and Jay West & Manuel Sahagun. Landing On A Hundred: B–Sides & Remixes is due out March 11th. (http://www.okayplayer.com/)
