Release Notes:

Stoney LaRue: One of the few artists the national media will label as ôRed Dirtö
and actually be right about à. though it will still be by mistake from the
common misconception that ôRed Dirtö and ôTexas Countryö are interchangeable.
The Texas born, Southeastern Oklahoma-bred singer and songwriter who once swept
the floors at the Tumbleweed Dancehall was just as famous for his own songs as
he was for being the brother of Bo Phillips and the ôguy in the bandannaö in the
Red Dirt scene until his 2011 album Velvet really put him on the map as his own
man. His earlier career had been filled with a lot of heartfelt music and mostly
live recordingsùhe was the life of the Red Dirt party so to speakùbut by his own
admission it was mostly driven by just really wanting to be involved in the
music he was surrounded by as opposed to putting his own signature stamp on it.
Velvet changed all of that, and it wasnÆt symbolized just by the few cents extra
that he splurged on to have the jewel cases covered with short, wine-colored
fur. This was Stoney asking and answering the question ôWho am I, and what is my
sound?ö Still as great as that album was, there was sort of a safeness, a
pensiveness to the approach you could sense if you put your ear to the ground,
almost like Stoney knew he hit on something right, but still didnÆt have the
confidence in it completely to deliver it with 100% commitment. He needed to get
it out there in the public to see how it was received before fully buying in
that what he was feeling was right, and good.
stoney-larue-aviatorWith his new album Aviator, you not only get that great,
signature Stoney LaRue sound, you get it with Stoney and all the involved
parties buying in by not just showing confidence, but even showing a little
boldness and willingness to do some things a little offbeat, run some songs
together and carry others out a little longer than they should be, and this all
results in that enriching Stoney LaRue mood becoming even more enhanced.
Aviator isnÆt one of those albums you cherry pick through to the best songs.
That would be like choosing a favorite child, because all of these songs are
great and work so well together and in succession. This is one of those albums
you put on for a long road trip or a restful backyard barbecue and then press
repeat when you get to the end. It is the embodiment of that laid back Texoma
flavor that doesnÆt just remind you to take a deep breath and appreciate life
for the moment, it demands it.
From an ôIf it ainÆt broke, donÆt fix itö mindset, Stoney LaRue assembles the
same team to work on Aviator as he did for Velvet, including producer Frank
Liddell, most famous for his efforts with Miranda Lambert (including getting
Stoney to sing backup on MirandaÆs 2013 hit ôAll Kinds of Kindsö), and producer
Mike McCarthy. Cut mostly live and to 2-inch tape in NashvilleÆs historic Studio
æAÆ, the album has an organic, loose feel, with a lot of the live energy
embedded in the tracks. Along those lines, this is an album that makes you want
to hear these songs on stage. Though one of the underlying factors in Aviatoræs
inspiration was LaRueÆs recent divorce, even the dark moments are turned gray or
rosy from the easy-hearted attitude that permeates this project.
Written with his common co-conspirator Mando Saenz, and released by eOne Music
who should help Stoney enjoy a little more exposure though this release, Aviator
is one of those albums that defines a career when many of the Red Dirt
originators are growing long in the tooth, and a lot of Texas country headliners
are letting the Nashville influence seep in a little too much. This is good
country music, and bonus tracks ôNatural High (for Merle Haggard)ö and ôStudio A
Trouble Time Jamö are also worth hunting down.
Not just an album of great songs, Aviator is a great album cover to cover.
