Xenia Dunford hunkered down in Q Division with engineer Joel Edinberg and producer Forrest Pettengill to produce this bewitching collection of songs. We love how ambient and ethereal the band sounds – beautifully surrounding Xenia’s super present voice.
Juliana Hatfield releases “Juliana Hatfield Sings Olivia Newton-John”
Tracked by James Bridges and mixed by Pat DiCenso in studio A, Juliana Hatfield’s Olivia Newton-John tribute album has been described as a match made in female-rocker heaven. Recorded with her longtime rock ‘n’ roll rhythm section of drummer Pete Caldes and bassist Ed Valauskas of the band Gravel Pit, the record showcases both hit songs and lesser-known tracks from Olivia’s catalog. Describing her admiration for Newton-John to Paste Magazine she admitted “I never lost my love for Olivia. I never hid it.”
For the sale of every album, one dollar will be donated to the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness & Research Centre (ONJ Centre), a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing patients with cancer access to leading medical treatment, breakthrough research, and the best in wellness and supportive care.
