He has proven this over the years with the<strong> Walkabouts<\/strong> and during his solo career. His songs have been covered by Townes Van Zandt, Steve Wynn and the Willard Grant Conspiracy. Now he is finally back with his new album &#8216;<strong>The Land We Knew the Best<\/strong>&#8216; and we are delighted to present the first single &#8216;<strong>Town Lights Fade<\/strong>&#8216; from it.   <\/p>\n\n<p><em>&#8220;We recorded the track live in a one room studio. No isolation. The vocals coming through a PA speaker. We were trying to conjure a mood, an atmosphere. The song is about holding on to the things that really matter&#8221;<\/em> says <strong>Chris<\/strong> <strong>Eckman <\/strong>about the song.<\/p>\n\n<p>For the recordings, which took place in and around Ljubljana, Eckman put together a group of familiar musicians. The rhythm section, consisting of <strong>\u017diga Golob<\/strong> (double bass) and <strong>Bla\u017d Celarec<\/strong> (drums), has been recording and touring with him for years. Most of the other musicians are friends from the local jazz and experimental music scene, including <strong>Ana Kravanja<\/strong> from the Slovenian avant-garde folk trio <strong>\u0160irom<\/strong>. Ex-Londoner and Ljubljana resident <strong>Alastair McNeill<\/strong> (R\u00f3is\u00edn Murphy, Kreda) was already behind the mixing desk for &#8216;<strong>Where the Spirit Rests<\/strong>&#8216; and once again conjures up an atmospheric mix.   <\/p>\n\n<p>The new album by <strong>Chris<\/strong> <strong>Eckman<\/strong> entitled &#8216;<strong>The Land We Knew the Best<\/strong>&#8216; will be released January 24 via <strong>Glitterhouse Records<\/strong> followed by extensive touring.
