专辑简介

The WIYOS are very very happy to announce the release of our second full length record, entitled Hat Trick. The record is a collection of 13 traditional songs pulled from our live set-list spanning our signature blend of Vaudevillian Ragtime/Jugband Blues and Hillbilly Swing. In these days of shimmering polished Pro-Tools editing and modern tweaking recording techniques, the band opted to take the opposite approach. After a busy summer touring Europe and the US, we went to the incredible PIE Studios in New York to play entirely live through some of the worlds best vintage gear. We cut the whole record in 3 days to 1 inch analogue tape using only two microphones in a live room. (of the 96 channels of beautiful Neve console, we used all of TWO!!!) Our amazing producer, Perry Margouleff, whose credits include many big rock names like Aerosmith, the Rolling Stones and Jimmy Page, captured both the sound and the spirit of the band in it's best live performances. Hat Trick puts the charm and arc of The Wiyos live show raw and true right in your room in the highest possible fidelity.
