By The Way, I Forgive You

Description

By The Way, I Forgive You, is the new album from Brandi Carlile. Produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Dave Cobb and acclaimed musician Shooter Jennings, the album is Carliles first release in partnership with Cobbs Low Country Sound imprint at Elektra Records.
Recorded at Nashvilles historic RCA Studio A, By The Way, I Forgive You includes ten new songs written by Carlile and longtime collaborators and bandmates Tim and Phil Hanseroth. Of their close relationship, Brandi comments, The Twins and I have been in a band for so long now. And not just a band, we are literally a family. When you create art with twins, it becomes unclear when I end and where they begin. In addition to Carlile (vocals, guitar, piano), Tim Hanseroth (vocals, bass), Phil Hanseroth (vocals, guitar), Cobb (guitar, percussion) and Jennings (piano, organ), the album features Chris Powell (drums), Josh Neumann (cello), John Mark Painter (French horn) as well as string arrangements and conducting by the late Paul Buckmaster (Elton John, The Rolling Stones).
Over the course of their acclaimed career, the band has released six albums, including 2015s The Firewatchers Daughter, which garnered a Grammy nomination for Best Americana Album. Additionally, earlier this year, they released Cover Stories: Brandi Carlile Celebrates 10 Years of the Story (An Album to Benefit War Child), which features 14 artists covering the songs on their breakthrough album The Story with all proceeds benefitting War Child. Artists included on the acclaimed project, which Rolling Stone calls, tender and powerful, include Dolly Parton, Adele, Pearl Jam, Kris Kristofferson, The Avett Brothers, Margo Price and Jim James as well as a forward written by President Obama. More details can be found here. Most recently, the band performed at the Obama Foundation Summits inaugural community event (on the personal invitation from President Obama). Curated by Chance the Rapper, other artists involved included Lin-Manuel Miranda, Aziz Ansari and Lena Waithe, Gloria Estefan, Andra Day, Nas, The National and Francis & the Lights.
