Robert Jon & The Wreck seem to have a thing for the UK. Having only just finished touring here this February gone, they’ve announced they’ll be back in September, and for those impatient for the wait in between the east coast band with a Southern rock sound has just released new EP One Of A Kind.
One Of A Kind is a fourtrack digital EP released by Journeyman Records, and feature the band’s new title track single‘One Of A Kind’produced by eight-time Grammy Award winner Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlile, Blackberry Smoke, Rival Sons).
“We had the absolute honour of working with Dave Cobb on this one at the legendary RCA Studio A in Nashville, Tennessee,” said Robert Jon & The Wreck’s guitarist, Henry James Schneekluth. “This song started off with a riff from Henry and a riff from Robert and Dave just kinda took it and flew with it. We got to nerd out on a bunch of old guitars, amps, and fuzz boxes for this one and really get some fun sounds dialled in as well.
“Everything happened so quickly working with Dave that we didn’t really even have time to process what was going on! And we were all blown away listening to the end result!”
The EP also features ‘Who Can You Love’, and American-infused single produced by the renowned, multi-GRAMMY Award winning producer Don Was(Bonnie Raitt, The Rolling Stones, John Mayer), while ‘Pain No More’, co-written by Charlie Starrof Blackberry Smoke, is an riff-driven roots rock track produced by Dave Cobb. In contrast, the hard-charging, rock and roll infused third track ‘Come At Me’,produced by Don Was, showcases another side of the band’s sound.
Prolific songwriters with a wealth of new material who refuse to be constrained by traditional release strategies, the Wreck’s new partnership with Joe Bonamassa’s Journeyman Records affords them the opportunity to work with the world’s top producers and release a steady stream of high-quality singles on an ongoing basis, cutting through the industry chaos and ensuring new music is accessible to fans as intended.
