After the rip-roaring ‘Swimsuit’ single tour wrapped up Chris Russell’s Chicken Walk should have taken a break. BUT NO. As evidenced in their new album’s title – Drive – they are keeping on keeping on with the album set for release on October 9 and the first run of dates for a burgeoning album tour now revealed.
Elemental, natural and supernatural, full of hurricanes, mermaids and femme fatales, Drive comes on like scenes from a southern gothic neo-noir. There's vice, danger and beauty everywhere. Venous snakes, all night diners, armed hold ups, mermaids and demons.
Listen back to The Juke Joint with Matt Frederick, for a live set from Chris Russell’s Chicken Walk.
