Walter
Trout, The Outsider
|
 On
June 24, Walter Trout will release his long-awaited studio album,
The Outsider, through Provogue Records. The Jersey-born guitarist
delivers a CD that is an autobiographical reflection, inspired by
a multi-faceted life. The Outsider, was produced by John Porter
famed for his work with B.B. King. With over 500,000 records sold
to date, this album will turn all preconceptions about Walter Trout
firmly on their head.
As the title implies, The Outsider is a thought-provoking collection
of songs that shows his true diversity. Often being pegged "too
Blues for Rock" and "too Rock for Blues", Trout stays
true to his belief that genres exists only for the critics.
Joining Trout, who wrote all songs and sings in addition to playing
guitar is drummer Kenny Aronoff (John Mellencamp), bassist Hutch
Hutchinson and pianist John Cleary, as well as Skip Edwards and
Samuel Avila on the Hammond B3 and harmonica player Jason Ricci.
Prior to the release of The Outsider, Trout will embark on a North
American tour beginning in April and culminating in August in Quebec.
