New Higgins album done. Title, cover, tracklist.
The 60s and 70s styled power-pop-n-classic-rock man force known as
Higgins has finally sealed the deal on their third album entitled
Z's. Mixes by Halsey Quemere and Travis Harrison were completed last week, Richard Morris mastered it yesterday, and now the artwork designed by Bridget Lanigan is done. These are the final steps in the record making process. We're happy to announce that this thing is done and also that it rules.
Z's is the long awaited follow up to
Dear Higgins (2006, Maggadee Records). The record was tracked by Travis and Halsey at Serious Business' studios over the course of the past year and a half. Kevin Fish's songs are elegant, eloquent, one-of-a-kind slices of delectable pop perfection. I swear. The band that is Higgins plays these songs like men on a mission from the Almighty. The busiest man in show-biz Josh Kaufman (Rocketship Park, Jack and the Pulpits, Caithlin DeMarrais, Dawn Landes, Balthrop Alabama, Benji Cossa) contributes inspired guitar playing throughout and delivers a classic string arrangement on "Write It Down." And in case you were wondering, drummer Brian Kantor can officially stake his claim as the bad-assest rock drummer in the world of rock-drummers, especially with his performances on the "Charly" suite. No release date is officially set yet but our sights are set the fall.
