Pretenders
Oct 23, 2016
Chrissie Hynde teamed up with Dan Auerbach for the 10th Pretenders studio album. Recorded in Nashville, the sessions included bassist Dave Roe, guitarist Kenny Vaughn, and members of The Arcs: drummer Richard Swift, keyboardist Leon Michael and pedal steel player Russ Pahl. Duane Eddie even guest appeared on "Never See You Again"!
As you might expect, there are certain Auerbach influences in the music but this is a Pretenders album though and through highlighted by Hynde's stronger-than-ever voice. In addition to the first single, "Holy Commotion," check out "Never Be Together," "Let's Get Lost," "The Man You Are" and the title track.
Of the new album, Hynde said, "This record is what I love most - real people playing real music."
Hynde recently published her memoirs, "Reckless: My Life as a Pretender." She is set to go on the road with Stevie Nicks with some of her own headline shows later in the winter.
