PUSHIN' AGAINST A STONE

+ PROMO INFO SHEET
‘Pushin’ Against A Stone’ was mostly recorded at Dan Auerbach (The Black Keys)’s Easy Eye studio in Nashville and was produced by Dan Auerbach and Kevin Augunas (Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, Florence & The Machine).
The title bears the story of Valerie June’s life - and the story of her forebears, too. “I feel I’ve spent my life pushing against a stone,” she says. “And the jobs I’ve had have been fitting for getting a true feel for how the traditional artists I loved came home after a hard day to sit on the porch and play tunes until bedtime.”
Her debut single ‘Workin’ Woman Blues’ was revealed in November 2012 to much critical acclaim, with a performance on ‘Later… With Jools Holland’, a BBC6 Music session, amongst other global radio stations, and a short European tour.
Elsewhere, there’s the delicate yet rousing triumph of ‘Somebody To Love’ (featuring the iconic Booker T Jones), the traditional folk-gospel charm of ‘Trials, Troubles, Tribulations’, the spectral, swampy wooziness of ‘Pushin’ Against A Stone’ (The Specials meets Phil Spector) and the dizzy,
harmonised, Shangri-La sashay of ‘Wanna Be On Your Mind’, with Valerie June’s voice sounding as old and wise as Mother Nature and as playfully naïve as a schoolgirl skipping home.
Staggeringly, Valerie June had never worked with a producer before, the experience opening her up to infinite new atmospheric possibilities.
