SWAMP DOGG SHARES NEW SINGLE ‘LONELY’

NEW RYAN OLSON-PRODUCED ALBUM LOVE, LOSS, AND AUTO-TUNE, OUT 7 SEPTEMBER VIA JOYFUL NOISE

“More than 60 years into his career, the enduring, eccentric bluesman embraces Auto-Tune to stunning effect”
The Guardian

“Another radical left turn for a 75-year-old artist with a career defined by them”
Pitchfork

“There is still plenty of southern flavour in ‘I’ll Pretend’, regardless of its modern sheen, and that recipe has produced a delicious result”
The 405 ‘Track of the Day’

“Swamp Dogg should be the only person allowed to use Auto-Tune”
The FADER

Swamp Dogg‘s new album Love, Loss, and Auto-Tune will be released on 7 September via Joyful Noise. The nine song collection, featuring production by Ryan Olson (PoliçaGayngs) and digital effects by Justin Vernon, finds Swamp Dogg’s bluesy southern soul colliding head-on with 21st Century electronic music production techniques.

Having already shared the video for lead single ‘I’ll Pretend (feat. Justin Vernon)‘ as well as his unique, distinctive take on Nat King Cole’s ‘Answer Me, My Love‘, today Swamp Dogg has followed up with the final single to be taken from the album ‘Lonely’ featuring production by MoogStar and with Messina by Justin Vernon.

Love, Loss, and Auto Tune continues Swamp Dogg’s development of a catalogue of music outside of genre and convention. Since he radically rebranded himself in 1970 from Jerry Williams, Jr., Swamp Dogg’s unpredictable and idiosyncratic releases tapping soul, disco, radical politics and subtle satire have seen him build a huge underground audience. Now, nearly fifty years after his debut release, Swamp Dogg stands on the precipice of another radical reinvention, at the age of 75 he’s set to dive headfirst and headstrong as ever into a world that none other than him could hope to pull off.

Love, Loss, and Auto-Tune is a gem, a unique and unpredictable moment in the life of a unique and unpredictable artist that some consider a national treasure. “I might be the only one,” Swamp Dogg says. “But I think Swamp Dogg is a national treasure.”
