Nicole Atkins Raises the Curtain on New Album
All the world’s a stage in Nicole Atkins’ Drama— her seventh studio LP and first in five years. Produced by Pat Sansone (Wilco) in Nashville and written by Nicole, the retro rock chanteuse faces herself in the mirror with bold, intimate tracks exploring dreams, love, pain, and more. Arriving on Sun Records, Drama spans 60s jangle pop to delightful 90s grooves for out-of-time instant classics like “Trippin’ On Teardrops,” “Singing In the Mirror,” and “Cue The Symphony,” featuring Chris Isaak.
Drama - Out Now
Despite his early promise as a singer, Ken Cook never fully emerged from the shadow of his mentor Roy Orbison. Signed to Sun Records in 1958, he left behind a handful of songs that have delighted archival listeners for decades, including a version of Orbison’s “Don’t Be Runnin’ Wild (Problem Child)” and a duet with Orbison of “I Was a Fool.” His other singles included “Crazy Baby” and “Thinkin’ Tonight of My Blue Eyes.”
