BILLY BRAGG releases his first new studio album in five years&Tooth& Nail Cooking Vinyl records on March 18th 2013. Tooth & Nail was recorded over a whirlwind five-day session with Grammy Award-winning producer Joe Henry (whose impeccable production credits include Solomon Burke, Aimee Mann, Elvis Costello and Allen Toussaint) in his South Pasadena studio. Working with a small band of musicians whose talents had recently appeared on records by the likes of Bon Iver, Lana del Rey and Regina Spektor, the performances have a wonderfully spontaneous feel. The results are, according to BILLY a return to the rootsy sound of 1998 s Mermaid Avenue sessions he recorded with Wilco - drawing on soul, country and folk music influences to explore the ups and downs of relationships that have stood the test of time. In 2011,I took a long, hard look at who I am and what I do. This album is the result.
