Jason Lytle drops surprise live album of a house show
Jason Lytle, frontman for Grandaddy, has dropped a new live album on Bandcamp. It's from a house show back in May and sees him perform a mix of solo and Grandaddy cuts, as well as a cover of "A Thousand Miles From Nowhere" by Dwight Yoakam.
Revealing the release on Facebook, Lytle wrote:
"Hello people...
I would like to make available a new recording of a house show I did on the 17th of May 2014. I’ve wanted to do a living room show for a while. This one was a welcome party of sorts as my first show in a new home town. My friend Stephan Bayley who hosted the show also recorded and engineered it and it turned well…so “what the hell”. The use of his Yamaha grand piano, some samples/loops and my acoustic guitar made it (actually) fun for me! I debated as to whether or not to edit out the in-between song chatter…till eventually I decided to leave it all in…. I think you get a better sense of the pleasant atmosphere in the room (and my wine buzz) by keeping it raw and unedited. Enjoy."
