Lucius' Jess Wolfe couldn't stop writing songs about her divorce, but that didn't keep the duo from teaming with Brandi Carlile for an album of disco bangers.
Following a late-career Grammy breakthrough and a best-selling memoir, Brandi Carlile returns with an ambitious new album, “In These Silent Days.”a funky bass line here — it’s Lucius’ singing that gives the music its emotional wallop.
“That didn’t sound like something they’d do,” Laessig says with a laugh. “Talk about outside their comfort zone.” To record the album, Lucius returned to Nashville and set up shop for three weeks in Cobb’s beloved RCA Studio A, where Dolly Parton famously cut “Jolene,” as Wolfe points out. Cobb talked about channeling ABBA, Donna Summer and the Bee Gees; Carlile invoked the music of what she calls her “adolescent immersion into gay drama: Elton John and Erasure and Janet Jackson.
Wolfe and Laessig say Waters supports their decision, though they laugh as they recall explaining “Second Nature‘s” concept to him. “He was like, ‘?’” Wolfe says. “So we said, ‘Well, you know, some of your songs make us want to dance — “Another Brick in the Wall” or “Money.” Is there any song that makes you think you want to dance?’ He was like, ‘I guess “Tennessee Waltz” by that redhead woman that plays guitar.
