Seesaw
is the second album by
Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa. Out May 20 and available on LP and
CD+DVD.
After a
successful
collaboration on “Don’t Explain” this highly talented duo is
back with Seesaw. Beth Hart, known for her raw and powerful
blues-rock sound, wraps her expressive vocals around classic soul
covers with Bonamassa on guitar and his ace band filling out the
tracks. “Beth’s got a pretty heady voice, very reminiscent of
Janis Joplin,” says Kevin Shirley “She’s also got a lot of Etta
James in her. With this material, there is a gentleness to the way
she delivers the most heartfelt tunes. It’s very cool, she’s done
a fantastic job.”
Bonamassa and Hart had crossed paths on the road numerous times, and played many of the same festivals in Europe. In early 2010, he caught a show of hers in London -“It was killer,” says Bonamassa - and suggested they do a project together sometime. Don’t Explain took shape that summer. Now 2 years later there’s the follow-up record Seesaw that captures 11 new blistering tracks. The tracklist features covers from Billie Holiday (Them There Eyes), Melody Gardot (If I Tell You I Love You), Etta James (A Sunday Kind Of Love) and the title track Seesaw made popular by Aretha Franklin.
