Barton Hollow was recorded in Nashville and was produced by Grammy-award winning producer Charlie Peacock. The 12-track album comes on the heels of a breakout year for the duo, whose remarkably successful live album has been downloaded over 130, 000 times. Additionally, their 2009 four song EP, Poison & Wine, debuted at #4 on the iTunes Singer / Songwriter Top Albums chart. The EP’s title track and first single was played in full on “Grey’s Anatomy” and its accompanying music video has been viewed over 740, 000 times on YouTube. Of the song, Stereo Subversion declares, “…your ears are immediately gripped by a haunting sound both simple and pristine…breathtaking.” The music video for the first single and title track from the new record was released in November and has already been viewed over 270, 000 times.
The Civil Wars consists of John Paul White, hailing from Florence, AL and Joy Williams, originally from Santa Cruz, CA, but now residing in East Nashville. The duo’s chance meeting a year and a half ago fueled an immediate songwriting chemistry and creative synergy. Their second show ever, performed at a sold out Eddie’s Attic, was recorded and released as a free digital album. Of the duo, Reg’s Coffee House host, Scott Register, praises, “In my 13 years on the radio, few of the artists I’ve championed had as immediate a reaction as The Civil Wars. This band has the ‘it’ factor that you look for. Don’t miss out.”
Rezensionen
,,Tod und Verderben ziehen sich auch durch die meisten anderen Songs von Joy Williams aus Kalifornien und John Paul White aus Alabama, wenngleich kammermusikalisch verhaltener und getragen von kontrastierend bittersüßen Harmonies." (Rolling Stone, 05 / 2011)
,,(...) Dann können die beiden - exemplarisch beim Titelsong - ihre ganze Klasse ohne unnütze Klangkosmetik demonstrieren." (Stereo, Juni 2012)
,,Den Grammy als beste Countryband gab es in diesem Jahr zu Recht." (Audio, Mai 2012)
