While manufactured pop dominated the airwaves as he came up at Union Grove High School in nearby McDonough, Eddie forked hard left, hanging with Lane and his friends, and digging back into the catalogs of blues giants like Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, Freddie King, and Rory Gallagher.

Hiatt teamed up with multi-Grammy Award-winning artist and producer Jerry Douglas and his band, the Jerry Douglas Band. The result of those sessions would be the album. There’s no drummer, yet these grooves are deep and true. And while the uptempo songs are, as ever, filled with delightful internal rhyme and sly aggression, the Jerry Douglas Band’s empathetic musicianship nudges Hiatt to startlingly vulnerable performances.
