the exclusive
debut of the “Two of a Kind” single via KUT, Austin
“To be
savored from beginning to end... Nothing short of a work of art.” – Performing
Songwriter
“The track itself was produced to sound like an old
recording brought back to life,” Austin’s Aimee
Bobruk says of “Two of a Kind,”
the first single from her upcoming new album /ba.’brook/ (a phonetic
spelling of her last name), scheduled for release on January 29th, 2013. Bobruk recently discussed the album
with Austin’s NPR affiliate KUT on the “Texas Music Matters” program.
Listen to the interview here.
“It’s kind of like what happened with Elvis’s ‘A Little Less Conversation,” Bobruk continues. “My original demo
vocal was very shaky and lo-fi, and I loved the fragile texture of it, but I
told my producer that there was no way I could ever reproduce it. So, he
started arranging the song into a duo that would consist of my old vocal
side-by-side with the new track and we ultimately produced a song that morphs
back and forth, between old and new, with one voice from two different times.”
On the upcoming new album, Bobruk chose to collaborate with producer/bassist Brian Beattie and drummer Dony Wynn. Beattie hails from Austin’s avant-garde punk rock band Glass Eye and has produced albums for Daniel Johnston, Okkervil River, Bill Callahan
and Shearwater. Wynn
has worked with such artists as Robert
Plant and Robert Palmer and is
known for building his drum kits out of everything from banana peels to filing
cabinets.
“Two of a
Kind” is the first single and video
from Aimee Bobruk’s upcoming new
album /ba.’brook/, scheduled for release on January 29th, 2013. Bobruk
is available for interviews. Contact Josh Bloom at Fanatic for more information.
