November 13, 2009 New Album To Be Released In The Spring
BAND NEARS COMPLETION OF THIRD ALBUM SET FOR SPRING 2010 RELEASE
This fall has been a busy one for Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, who have been splitting their time between recording sessions for their third album for Ragged Company/Hollywood Records and introducing the band’s new five-piece configuration on a string of tour dates that included five incredible performances at this year’s Bonnaroo festival.Catherine Popper (Ryan Adams & the Cardinals, Norah Jones) is the band’s new bass player, while fellow Vermonter Benny Yurco, who plays in the GPN side project Blues & Lasers with lead guitarist Scott Tournet and Matt Burr, makes the Nocturnals a two-guitar band. Burr continues to anchor GPN on drums.The group has been enjoying “that new-band buzz,” as Grace puts it, since Popper and Yurco came on board.
The band kicks off their fall tour with Brett Dennen November 13 in Nashville, TN (full schedule of tour dates and venues listed below).
The as yet untitled new album, which will be released in spring 2010, had its genesis early in 2009 when Potter and songwriter/producer Mark Batson got together to co-write after they’d been introduced by mutual friends. Grace says of her original motivation for choosing to work with Batson on this album, “I liked the idea of writing with someone who was totally not from my own world.”
“Mark was the first person outside of my band that I’d ever attempted to co write with, and I was excited,” she continues. “We ended up writing one song after another – it was like we could read each other’s minds. He would build drum tracks, basslines and piano chords, and I would write the words and vocal melodies over the top. It was a natural progression, totally organic and magical. I knew he also produced, and after we played Bonnaroo we went into the studio with him for a week to see if we could bring that magic to the band as a whole. When we started laying down tracks, it felt like something really special was happening, and Mark was capturing it. Inside of a week, we had five strong tracks.”
So Potter and her four cohorts continued on their roll in league with Batson, who straddles the worlds of hip-hop/R&B (Dr. Dre, Jay-Z, Alicia Keys) and rock (Dave Matthews Band, Maroon 5), taking full advantage of the energy the two new players and the writer/producer were bringing to the creative process. They hunkered down at Westlake Studios in L.A. in early September, banging out a dozen tracks in two weeks, for a total of 17. “It was magical” Grace marvels. The biggest remaining challenge will be what to leave off the album, now in its mixing stages.
Songs sure to make the cut: “Colors,” a big ballad inspired by Obama’s election; “Medicine,” which has the distinction of being the first song the band wrote together, and the Batson collaboration “Oasis,” which showcases the band’s newly mounted dual-guitar firepower, as Tournet and Yurco interweave spiraling lines over a refracted groove deftly laid down by Burr and Popper; and “Tiny Light” (another Batson co-write), a powerful song of resilience and hope during dark times. These songs are a few of the highlights of a work that documents a group of exceptional young players in the very act of taking flight – an album that will herald the arrival of Grace Potter and the Nocturnals as a world-class rock ’n’ roll band.

NEW ADDITIONS TO THE LINEUP AS THE BAND’S THIRD ALBUM,
PRODUCED BY T BONE BURNETT, NEARS COMPLETION
After completing work on their T Bone Burnett-produced third album for Ragged Company/Hollywood Records, which is now in its final stages, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals will hit the road this summer in a new configuration. Catherine Popper (Ryan Adams & the Cardinals, Hem) is the band’s new bass player, replacing Bryan Dondero, while their friend and fellow Vermonter Benny Yurco, who also plays Blues & Lasers, guitarist Scott Tournet’s experimental rock project, will be added as rhythm guitarist on all tour dates.
Writer/singer/keyboard player Potter, guitarist Scott Tournet and drummer Matt Burr had planned on holding extensive auditions for the vacant bass slot in New York and L.A., but they first checked out Popper on a recommendation. “She came in, plugged in and played with us,” Grace recalls, “and by the end of the first song we knew she was absolutely, positively the perfect person for us. She completely understood the direction we wanted to go in.”
After Yurco sat in with the band, including Popper, during their performance for a special VH1”School of Rock” 40th anniversary of the Woodstock Festival (they played “White Rabbit,” “Woodstock,” Janis Joplin’s “Try” and one original, “Nothing But The Water”), “We all had that new-band buzz,” Grace recalls. “We thought that if were making a lineup change, why not make it a whole new experience? Because we couldn’t really replace Bryan—he’d been with us too long for that. So having five members has made it a positive transition for all of us.”
Grace laughingly describes the as yet untitled new album, which is slated for a fall release, as “a soul record at its core, like the Velvet Underground backing Aretha Franklin.” Clarifying this improbable set of reference points, she says, “There’s a spirituality—a soulfulness—that’s tapping into the Al Green vibe, but with a youth, a darkness and an edge to it that I wasn’t expecting.”
Potter put her complete trust in Burnett, a studio visionary who was awarded the 2009 Producer of the Year Grammy for Robert Plant & Alison Krauss’ modern-day classic Raising Sand. For the sessions, the producer called on three of his go-to guys—drummer Jim Keltner, bassist Dennis Crouch and guitarist Marc Ribot—who formed the core studio band with Potter, Tournet and Burr.”
“We did the full-on Dylan experience, where these guys pulled the song together within 15 minutes,” Grace points out. “Each time, they’d listen to the song, write up their charts and then go in and start exploring. So a lot of the songs changed in unexpected ways from the demos. I was so lucky to have been prepared for that openness, because we were implementing something more significant than what the songs might’ve been otherwise.”
A key example of what Grace refers to as “the T Bone treatment” occurred early in the tracking, while they were working on the song “That Phone.” “Initially, it was a clean, sassy little pop song with a gospel base to it,” she says, “but when we took it into the studio, the band clicked into this trance-like pattern that took it to a completely new place; it was like a fire was lit under the song. And that turned out to be the launch pad for the record. I was sitting with T Bone the next day, and he said, ‘Now I know what kind of record we’re making.’ And I said, ‘Yeah, man, me too. This is a journey I need to take as an artist. This is the bridge.’ And everything we did from that moment on sounded great.”
This is Somewhere, the band’s preceding album, generated glowing reviews. Rolling Stone’s David Fricke raved, “Potter…is poised for bigger things… And she’s no pushover as lyricist.” The AustinChronicle praised her “breakout, star-making” performance, while Paste asserted that Grace “has the potential for greatness.”
In between recording and mixing the new album, Grace Potter and The Nocturnals will be on the road playing a handful of dates previewing songs from their upcoming album. You can catch GPN in the following cities.
