Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons - “Born Again”
Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons - “Born Again”
the son of a baptist minister, cory chisel grew up immersed in the spiritedness of gospel music. a spiritedness that still informs a sound further influenced by iconic artists like howlin’ wolf, aretha franklin, and sam cooke. the native of the upper midwest breathes a refreshing vitality into a sometimes inwardly-focused prosaic genre. we really dig cory (and his wandering sons), if you’re not already up on him, familiarize yourself.

Great post - I’m also really digging the new Cory Chisel record. Just saw that itunes is doing a special sale this next week that lets you download the album basically three weeks early for $5.99… not bad!
