  • Description

    Grammy-winner Mike Farris' upcoming release, The Sound of Muscle Shoals, finds the Nashville artist releasing his first album jointly through legendary Alabama imprint Fame Records and Mississippi's Malaco Records. For his follow-up to 2018's Silver & Stone, Farris made the pilgrimage to Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama for an album overseen by award-winning executive producer Rodney Hall (son of legendary producer and record man Rick Hall). The album is the culmination of all of his musical influences and life lessons learned, captured in a location that holds deep meaning for him. "Working with Mike Farris on this album has been an incredible journey--his soul, grit, and passion embody everything that makes this music timeless," says Hall. "Capturing that spirit in the place where it all began and releasing it on FAME Records is a full-circle moment for Muscle Shoals music. Recorded in creative collaboration with members of the legendary Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section and other session stalwarts of 'The Shoals' recording scene featuring Clayton Ivey (keys), Will McFarlane, Kelvin Holly, Wes Sheffield (guitars), Jimbo Hart (bass), and Justin Holder (drums). This album is not just a tribute to the sound; it's a living, breathing testament to its future."
