Description
The vinyl version of 'Year Of The Rabbit', which marks Allison Pierce's first album as a solo artist, following two decades with her sister in the acclaimed duo, The Pierces.
Recorded in analogue, straight to magnetic tape, the album was mostly performed by Allison and Ethan Johns at Hollywood recording mecca Sunset Sound (much in the same spirit as Johns produced Ray LaMontagne's debut LP, Trouble). The only outside contributors were Gabe Witcher, who supplied fiddle on two tracks, and Greg Leisz, who played pedal steel on another.
"Over the years, I'd write these songs knowing they weren't Pierces songs, and I collected them in anticipation of the day when I could record them myself," says Pierce. "I'd envisioned the whole thing, so I was ready, and waiting patiently for the opportunity to make it."
