The new album that debuted at number 6 on the iTunes country charts and as a featured Americana release on Apple Music.
Featuring the singles "Old Roads," "The Devil's In New Orleans," and "Murder In A Dancehall."
Whether you’ve arrived fashionably late to Jeff Tuohy’s music or patiently waited for his next release, Hudson Delta takes you straight to the heart of the soiree. Aged 12 years and distilled through late nights on Bleecker Street, the downtown man with rural roots blends big city bravado with backroads grit. The result- a signature sound of skyscraper Americana that takes the listener on a Kerouac road trip.
Tuohy’s no stranger to long hauls, having seen a record deal crumble with the 2009 economy after his debut was featured on 100+ radio stations across America – “I had a choice: make good on my professional degree, or double down on art. I chose the latter.”
The devotion proved fruitful with journalists calling him “one of the best up-and-coming songwriters in North America” (Writer’s Bone); “A daring and multifaceted performer” (Hartford Advocate) with “a little bit of grit and a whole lot of soul” (Newport Mercury). His single, Bourbon Street developed an online following with millions of plays across platforms, drawing comparisons to Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Postmodern Jukebox, and Broadway theater.
Co-produced by Latin Grammy-winner, Brian Forbes (Emily King/Fernando Otero), Hudson Delta transports audiences between the pulse of The Big Easy, open skies of Hill Country, Irish pubs of Manhattan, and jagged mountain paths where Tuohy sleeps when hiking across Appalachia. “Once in a while, you arrive at a peak, look back on where you’ve been, and it all feels worthwhile. This record is one of those summits.”
Through these rough, isolated climbs, he’s been able to find marrow. The connection to that journey spikes Hudson Delta with rugged authenticity. Recorded and mixed in Brooklyn, the album springs from the source. “Some weeks we’d play nine, three- hour shows. That grind yields camaraderie. We’d finish 12-hour days, then cab over to friends playing in The Village or Lower East Side.”
The cast of Hudson Delta reads like a smoky night of New York City venue hopping: Josh Dion (Paris Monster), Randy Schrager (Scissor Sisters/Jesse Malin), and Mike Nappi (Lucky Peterson) on drums; Dan Asher (Akie Bermiss/Gabe Dixon) on bass; Pat Firth (Bernhoft/John Forte) and Dave Archer (Kaki King/Uni) on keys; Jonathan Gregg (SUSS) and Dan Iead (Norah Jones) on pedal steel; Jeremy Goldsmith and Eric Ieraci on guitar; Colin Smith (MRNorth), Ari Hest, Sophia Ramos, and Ramona Dunlap on background vocals; Tony DeMarco and members of 11th St. Bar’s Irish Seisuns; and Nick Biello (Slide ampton/Jimmy Heath Big Band) co-arranging horns.
The first single/video, The Devil’s In New Orleans was animated by Sao Paulo’s 77 Marcus (Archibald), matching the tune with noir expressionism. The second, Old Roads, follows Tuohy driving and reminiscing through his Connecticut hometown with co-direction by Learan Kahanov (Madam Secretary/Star Girl).
Hudson Delta’s nostalgia affirms the trail forges on. “Touring cities, mountain towns, and islands birthed these songs. I can’t wait for the audience to sit shotgun on this next run.”
