Sturgill Simpson — Sound & Fury

2019 Vinyl LP Pressing

Produced by Simpson, Sound & Fury was recorded primarily at the McGuire Motor Inn in Waterford, Michigan, with his bandmates Bobby Emmett, Chuck Bartels, Miles Miller, who all serve as co-producers, along with Grammy nominee John Hill. The album — which Simpson describes as “a sleazy, steamy, rock-n-roll record” — is a marked departure from his other country-inspired music.
