TWILIGHT HOTEL, Orpheum Bell
Winnipeg, MB - "Twilight Hotel is the hottest couple to join musical voices in years. The aptly titled band of two presents dark, road songs that sizzle on and seduce off stage. Two guitars or a guitar accompanied by accordion, two rich vocals, two composer-lyricists: Twilight Hotel fills a whole band's bill with only two members." (Folkwax)
Twilight Hotel has teamed up with producer Colin Linden to record "Highway Prayer," the follow-up album to their critically acclaimed 2006 release, "Bethune," which was nominated Best Americana Album at the 2007 American Independent Music Awards. Highway Prayer continues the duo's provocative love story showcasing their characteristic dark twang and noir cabaret all centered around their rich vocal harmonies. Recorded in Nashville, Tenn., Highway Prayer features prolific guest musicians including the late Richard Bell (Janis Joplin, The Band), Stephen Hodges (Tom Waits), and Dave Roe (Johnny Cash). The 12 original songs run the gamut from the opening rockabilly jump manifesto, "Viva la Vinyl," the street busker feel of "Shadow of a Man," to the heartbreaking confessional closer "Sand in your Eyes." Their repertoire combines songs inspired by their off stage life together on the road and are informed by their uniquely Canadian sensibilities.
From barroom stomps to sultry lounge numbers, from country ballads to gypsy waltzes, Orpheum Bell's unique "Country and Eastern" sound enlists accordion, banjo, guitar, fiddle, clarinet, saw, autoharp, and the double bass. The band's members have been performing together in and around their home town of Ann Arbor since early 2005 and, with the release of their debut album, "Pretty as You" (2007), are expanding their touring presence throughout Michigan and beyond.
