about

Old Paint, Freakwater's 4th record was recorded by Brad Wood and the band in Chicago's Idful Studios in May 1995 and was mastered in Memphis at Ardent by Larry Nix. It is the first record with fourth member Bob Egan, who would later go on to join Wilco.

Old Paint moves the band out of the shadow of previous records where albums were dominated by a balance of cover songs and originals. Old Paint displays a healthy batch of some of Cathy\'s finest songwriting moments with tracks like "Hero/Heroine", "Smoking Daddy" and "Waitress Song". Also in place more than ever is the vocal partnership between Cathy and Janet who began over 13 years ago. They are clearly comfortable harmonizing as is most emphatically demonstrated by their choice of recording their vocals, guitars and bass at once rather than using overdubs.

1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off. felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery. thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper swirlingmadness

Take It Like A Man
by Amanda Shires

supported by 4 fans who also own “Old Paint”

I got hooked on Amanda Shires when I heard her song Bulletproof about 7 years ago. Like a fine wine, her music just gets better with age. I immediately pre-ordered when I heard Hawk for the Dove. Now that the whole album has dropped I’m so glad I have it tonight to sit and have a beer and enjoy the whole album. WaitingfortheTurningPoint
