Singer-songwriter and guitarist Doyle Bramhall II teams up with longtime collaborator and dear friend Norah Jones on the song 'Searching For Love', taken from Doyle Bramhall's upcoming album Shades.
Talking about Searching For Love, Doyle says; " One of the great moments for me while making this album was writing and recording the song “searching for love” with Norah Jones. She is such a master musician, songwriter and singer. Even though she nailed the song when we recorded it, I wanted to do more takes just to hear her play more. She always plays the most beautiful and unexpected things. I wanted my own quintessential love song."
Shades comes hot on the heels of Bramhall’s 2016 critically acclaimed fourth record, Rich Man, his first solo album in 15 years. The album features Eric Clapton, Norah Jones, the Tedeschi Trucks Band, and Austin buds the Greyhounds. “Without appearing immodest, I can admit that I’ve led a pretty charmed life,” Bramhall says. “I’m thrilled and honored to have all of these incredible people guest on my record.” Also on the record are an ace group of musicians he’s worked with over the years – multi-instrumentalist and string arranger Adam Minkoff, and drummers Carla Azar and Abe Rounds
In the intervening years between albums, Bramhall established himself as one of the most distinctive and sought-after guitarists around, performing with a dizzying array of artists that includes Roger Waters, Elton John, Gregg Allman, Allen Toussaint and T-Bone Burnett, to name a few. More significantly, Bramhall had spent over a decade as Eric Clapton’s musical right-hand man, collaborating closely with the legendary guitarist both in the studio and on stage. He’s also produced albums and written songs for Sheryl Crow and the Tedeschi Trucks Band, among others.
Shades is a spellbinding blend of grungy blues, raucous garage rock, transcendent psychedelia, and soothing, soul-stirring ballads that sees Bramhall reaching new heights as a multi-instrumentalist, producer and vocalist while responding to his heart’s most urgent commands as a lyricist and arranger.
