—New Orleans Times-Picayune
With his raspy, soulful voice and memorable original material, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Eric Lindell first came to national prominence on Alligator Records in 2006, releasing three critically acclaimed albums filled with songs which became instant fan favorites. After a series of releases for other labels, Lindell now returns to Alligator with REVOLUTION IN YOUR HEART, featuring his most engaging and personal writing and his most enticing, instantly unforgettable melodies.
REVOLUTION IN YOUR HEART was recorded at Studio In The Country in Bogalusa, Louisiana and produced by Lindell and Benjamin Mumphrey. Lindell plays just about everything on the recording – guitar, bass, keyboards, organ, harmonica – except drums, which are expertly played by Willie McMains. The twelve universally relatable original songs – many of them autobiographical – combine sunshiny melodies and thick, greasy grooves, and paint vivid pictures of everyday living. From the first note to the last, REVOLUTION IN YOUR HEART feels not only somehow immediately familiar, but also profoundly moving.
