Album Description:
The velvet-voiced Raul Malo meets a small acoustic string combo on a collection of country and pop standards, and the result is The Nashville Acoustic Sessions, a masterpiece of heartbreak songs and heavenly performances. The Grammy winning vocalist of the Mavericks joins all-star musicians Pat Flynn (New Grass Revival, Bela Fleck) on Guitar, Rob Ickes (Blue Highway, Patty Loveless) on Dobro, and Dave Pomeroy (The Chieftans, Emmylou Harris) on Bass, performing classic songs by Hank Williams, Gram Parsons, Bob Dylan, The Louvin Brothers, Van Morrison, Roy Orbison and more. Full of elegant, bluegrass-tinged torch songs, The Nashville Acoustic Sessions explores the thrilling depths of despair and delightful heights reached by Malo’s incomparably lonely tenor.
