About Me:
 
Like many artists before him, Cory Chisel first connected with the power of song and the spellbinding possibilities of live performance through the music he heard in church. The gospels rich vernacular of loss and redemption also informed his innate poetic sense and lyrical range. For most of my life, he says, my dad was a Baptist minister, so I learned a lot about being a showman, and I learned a lot about music. Many of the hymns from church still are the most beautiful songs I know. I'm thankful for growing up where stories and the pursuit of happiness were on everybody's mind. I think Im still trying to achieve the same euphoria I felt at a very young age, when I would be completely taken over by these rhythms and these sounds and these stories.

Death Won't Send A Letter, Chisels full-length debut for Black Seal Records, is a dark and urgent rock and roll vision. It takes a romantic albeit gutsy stance on the meaning of love and spirituality, as the songs seek to make sense of the world outside and human desires within reconciling the call of the road and a longing for home, literally and figuratively. With Grammy-winning producer Joe Chiccarelli (The Shins, The White Stripes) at the helm, Corys songs have transformed into lush and nuanced recordings that never sacrifice his emotional vulnerability or his rich and unique vocal tone.

The songs on Death Won't Send A Letter were recorded primarily at Blackbird Studios in Nashville, TN with Chisels backing vocalist/keyboard player Adriel Harris and Little Jack Lawrence (The Raconteurs, The Dead Weather) on initial tracking. Cory, Adriel and Little Jack were then joined by Jacks longtime collaborator Patrick Keeler (The Raconteurs, The Greenhornes) on drums. With Patrick and Jacks driving rhythm section the albums sound took on a grittier hue. And in Brendan Benson Cory found a writing and arranging partner that birthed the lead album track Born Again. Carl Broemel from My Morning Jacket also contributes on guitar.

The album, released on Black Seal, follows up Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons 2008 live EP Cabin Ghosts, which Chisel co-produced with Tony Berg.

Cory Chisel and The Wandering Sons Death Won't Send A Letter will be released September 29th of 2009 in the US
