"This setting offered Bridwell a chance to show off his genuine vocal abilities... Bridwell shares this skill with his bandmates, who surprised us with big, round, multi-part harmonies... brought to mind the best efforts of Eagles and Crosby, Stills and Nash." Nashville Scene
Men with cool girlfriends and wives, rejoice! Band of Horses has just armed you with the perfect Valentine's Day gift: Acoustic at The Ryman, a 10-song virtual greatest hits set of acoustic renditions of songs from across the Band of Horses catalog, recorded at Nashville's legendary Ryman Auditorium over two magical nights in April 2013, to be released February 10, 2014 on Brown Records via Kobalt Label Services. In addition to standard digital and CD versions, Acoustic at The Ryman will be available on 180 Gram Vinyl as well as a high quality 24-bit 96k WAV version. Standard digital, CD and vinyl versions will be available for preorder with bonus tracks at bandofhorses.com this week.
"The game plan was to keep it wild and expressive like the show while capturing it with highest resolution available," says the band's Bill Reynolds. "The electricity in The Ryman was off the charts. If that makes it to the listener, then we'll consider this a success."
