\u201cWhen [producer] Phil Weinrobe told me that we were going to record this album live, including the vocals with everyone in the same room, without overdubs or the chance go to back and edit or re-do any of the music, I was terrified. But then, I realized it was probably the most appropriate way to record a song like this. The whole album, but especially this one, is about confronting and accepting how little control I have over so many fundamental aspects of my life. You can only try your best. And I feel like that really came through in the recording.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hirway has confirmed that Allison Russell will join him for the Nashville date of his upcoming tour, ‘A Concert and Conversation with Hrishikesh Hirway and Special Guests’.

The takeaway<\/h2>\n
Hirway’s return to recording his own music after focusing on his acclaimed Song Exploder podcast for over a decade represents an important creative evolution. The personal nature of his new album, ‘In the Last Hour of Light’, which reflects on loss and the everyday moments that shape us, promises to provide a deeply intimate and meaningful listening experience for his fans.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n
