Cool Hand Lucille [Import]

From the badlands of Brunswick and the seaside skulduggery of St Kilda, alt-country five-piece the Joelenes bring you their full-length album: Cool Hand Lucille. This 10-track collection of original songs is a celebration of love, loss, public transport (trams in particular), and the ability to keep on truckin' even when life seems hell-bent on bringing you down. Recorded over 12 months at Woodstock and Joeleco Studios, the album features Dead Man's Cigarette, Pass the Wine, Mary & Pat, the Tram Song and Some Consolation. The Joelenes unique and powerful sound is shaped by four-part harmonies, acoustic guitars, harmonica licks, keys, mandolin, stripped-back drums and dirty bass - it's a little bit rootsy, a little bit bar-room stomper, a little bit bluesy and a whole lotta alt-country. The female-fronted line-up features: Rosina 'slingshot' Gannon (guitar/vocals), Nina 'howlin' Rousseau (harmonica/vocals/guitar), Joanna 'Rainman' Flemming (keys/vocals/guitar/mandolin), Hadley 'big daddy' Agrez (bass) and Chris 'boom chicka' den Brave (drums/washboard). The Joelenes are overjoyed to be performing Cool Hand Lucille at the Toff in Town (252 Swanston Street, Melbourne; doors open 7pm) with special guests Simon Cleary, Paddy 'Clawhammer' Witton, Danger Alexander and 'The' Jack Norton. The launch will also be recorded. Cool Hand Lucille is published by Shock Music Publishing and distributed by Vitamin Records. It's available in all good record stores and iTunes from 2 November 2009.
