Cody's Dream
Bloodshot
ROCK
Inspired by a solitary trip through the South without a working car radio and only his own thoughts to keep him company, Mark Pickerel’s second album for Bloodshot, ‘Cody’s Dream’, is a Steinbeckian odyssey through modern America; a tale of thruways and the characters that occupy them. The result: 13 dusty gems flirting with the staticky ghosts of Motown, Tin Pan Alley, classic pop, and soul; dancing across the radio spectrum like a trail of mileposts in the rearview.
With Mark, it’s about THE VOICE – a sly baritone equally inviting and troubling but as-cool-as-the-other-side-of-the-pillow: Warm whiskey breath on a cold winter’s night. Quite a feat for a guy who made his name as a drummer for such seminal bands as Nirvana, Screaming Trees, and more recently Neko Case, Brandi Carlile, and Mark Lanegan.
The album was produced by the legendary Steve Fisk (Nirvana, Screaming Trees, Wedding Present). The Praying Hands feature all-star players from the Northwest, including Jim Sangster (Young Fresh Fellows), Michael Musburger (Supersuckers, Fastbacks, Posies) and guitarist Johnny Sangster (whose production credits include Mudhoney). Advertising currently happening in Rhythms mag for Mark Pickerel. Album being serviced to all major media for review and featuring.
